One Man Drinking Games
And you said it would be funny
To keep me hanging in suspense
Then I'd run over to your house
And I'd scale the chainlink fence
That borders your backyard
And that I'd climb through your window
And I'd whisper that I love you
As you fall out of your clothes
And we'd lay there in the darkness
Like the dream of you I had
Where we captured all the fireflies
And we knew what time we had
Could be counted on our fingertips
That almost made you cry
You let me hold you tightly
As we said all our goodbyes
May I say I loved you more
May I say I loved you more
And it must have been an hour
That I clutched you in my arms
And I must have said the the right things
Because you instantly felt warm
And you heard my heart stop beating
And you wanted not to cry
As your sympathetic whispers
They told a tale of bad goodbyes
And you swore you saw me laughing
And I swore I saw you smile
And this time we spent together
Has got to last us quite a while
As I take this piece of you with me
I'll carry it to my grave
Knowing that for someone, you're an angel sent to save
(Keep breathing my angel, if you go down, I go down with you)
May I say I loved you more
(Keep breathing, just keep breathing)
May I say I loved you more
Let's drink to the memories that we shared
Down one to all the hopes and cares
Here's too for being unaware that you're gone
Because before too long, you'll be a memory
Let's drink to the memories that we shared
(Before too long, you'll be a memory)
Down one to all the hopes and cares
(Because before too long, you'll be a memory)
Here's too for being unaware
(I said before too long, you'll be a memory)
That you're gone
I said before too long, you'll be a memory
To keep me hanging in suspense
Then I'd run over to your house
And I'd scale the chainlink fence
That borders your backyard
And that I'd climb through your window
And I'd whisper that I love you
As you fall out of your clothes
And we'd lay there in the darkness
Like the dream of you I had
Where we captured all the fireflies
And we knew what time we had
Could be counted on our fingertips
That almost made you cry
You let me hold you tightly
As we said all our goodbyes
May I say I loved you more
May I say I loved you more
And it must have been an hour
That I clutched you in my arms
And I must have said the the right things
Because you instantly felt warm
And you heard my heart stop beating
And you wanted not to cry
As your sympathetic whispers
They told a tale of bad goodbyes
And you swore you saw me laughing
And I swore I saw you smile
And this time we spent together
Has got to last us quite a while
As I take this piece of you with me
I'll carry it to my grave
Knowing that for someone, you're an angel sent to save
(Keep breathing my angel, if you go down, I go down with you)
May I say I loved you more
(Keep breathing, just keep breathing)
May I say I loved you more
Let's drink to the memories that we shared
Down one to all the hopes and cares
Here's too for being unaware that you're gone
Because before too long, you'll be a memory
Let's drink to the memories that we shared
(Before too long, you'll be a memory)
Down one to all the hopes and cares
(Because before too long, you'll be a memory)
Here's too for being unaware
(I said before too long, you'll be a memory)
That you're gone
I said before too long, you'll be a memory
