Lyrics

I’m already out of things to say,
and the drinks haven’t even come.
I’d say “I love you” just to fill up space,
but I just said that. (Here we are)
And it didn’t go over too well. (At the same dive bar)
Like I was trying to convince myself. (Here we are)
But I’m not sure you even heard. (Where we first met)
She’s telling me now,
“This thing has run its course.”
Eight years, for what?
A shotgun divorce.
She’s staring me down.
She’s got the decency to cry her tears
someplace I can’t see.
Excuse myself to gather my thoughts,
run some cold water down my face.
The mirror captures my stupid grin, ad infinitum. (Here she comes)
Aw, shit. I forgot my comb. (And I’m so scared)
An exquisite replica of dime-store cologne (I know in my heart)
will have to do (I’m doing what’s best)
Right about now,
I sure could use that drink.
‘Cause drowning in my palm
is an engagement ring.
Wish I could say she brought out my best,
but I couldn't help screwing up
when she was around.
Took me for granted.
Before I go, here’s one more thing.
Oh, here’s this ring.
Take it, it’s yours. Now it’s yours.
