Somewhere between drunkenness and chivalry

I hold the door open and let her pass through

She says thanks to me in a British accent and I try to answer her in the same voice

She laughs at me, says "What was that supposed to be?"

I say "I'm sorry, I'm from a different part of the country"

She says, "Come on baby, try again"

Come on baby, try again

Somewhere between drunkenness and sincerity

I smile at her for just a little too long

Charlie's drinking wine, Judy's laughing at him

She says, "I forget that you're such a fancy guy"

He tips his hat, says "M'lady, do you come here often?"

I swear I've seen them do this one a hundred times before

Come on baby, try again

Come on baby, try again

Somewhere between drunkenness and charity

She puts her hand on the sleeve of my coat

She says "I've missed this"

I say "I know, I've missed you too"

She says, "I was actually talking about your coat"

She makes me laugh, oh how she makes me laugh

I just let my head sink down and fake some deep sobs

Come on baby, try again

Come on baby, try again

Somewhere between drunkenness and jealousy

I watch her talking to some old friend

What a reunion, he recognized her across the room

How many years could there be to catch up on?

And somewhere between drunkenness and honesty

I make a silent toast to the things that I do and don't miss

Come on baby, try again

Come on baby, try again

Come on baby, try again

Come on baby, try again
