Lyrics William Clark Green

William Clark Green

Tonight

Take your time don’t come clean

Knock me down and lie to me

Because I won’t come back if I don’t have a home

I try to hear the words you speak

I toss and turn in my sleep

Because it kills me that I might end up alone

I breathe the smoke into my lungs, I pour a shot to get me drunk

Lord I drink away my troubles and my pride

There’s a girl who wants romance, I sit down because I can’t dance

God I wish that she would take me home tonight

Tonight

Try to breathe, please calm down

Hell I can’t this time around

Because I’m sick of being everybody’s fool

I just need some peace of mind

I’ll be gone in mid July

And I bet that I will still think of you

I breathe the smoke into my lungs, I pour a shot to get me drunk

Lord I drink away my troubles and my pride

There’s a girl who wants romance, I sit down because I can’t dance

God I wish that she would take me home tonight

Tonight
