Rum & Cola
It's almost been a year
I've been doing fine
But I'm not the same girl
You met that summer night
Cause I moved away from home
And lived a bit more life since then
But I still don't know
What the hell that was
Cause the night that we met
I wasn't looking for love
I was looking for fun
Some stupid memories
With some college friends
But sometimes I swear I can hear
All the words you wish you said
Sometimes I can I taste it too
Your regret
Your regret
Cause you're sippin Rum and Cola
And you're wishing you could hold her
But the truth is you didn't know her
Because she left as quickly as she came
And you're sippin Rum and Cola
With the devil on your shoulder
Does he keep her warm
Does he hold her?
Now even forty proof can't numb the pain
You let her slip away
And the night you met her was a shitty night
Almost skipped out on the party
Last minute changed your mind
Thought you'd see the same people
Have the same old time
Til you saw her in the corner
With those sparkling eyes
She had long brown hair
Smooth caramel thighs
And lips sweet like berries
In the heat of July
When your friend said
She was just passing through for a few nights
You thought
Golly gee
I'm such a lucky guy
So you made your move
With a well timed hi
And when you left the party
She was by your side
And you were laughing and kissing
Under the pale moonlight
But now she's just a ghost
Living in your mind
Cause you're sipping Rum and Cola
And you're wishing you could hold her
But the truth is you didn't know her
Because she left as quickly as she came
And you're sipping Rum and Cola
With the devil on your shoulder
Does he keep her warm
Does he hold her
Now even forty proof
Can't numb the pain
You let her slip away
You let her slip away
No stranger to casual
So why was this different
But her palm pressed into yours
Felt like the piece that'd been missing
After she left your bed
You smelt her sweet scent for days
Looking back on it now
You knew a player was played
Cause you let her slip away
You let her slip away
You let her slip away
You let her slip away
I've been doing fine
But I'm not the same girl
You met that summer night
Cause I moved away from home
And lived a bit more life since then
But I still don't know
What the hell that was
Cause the night that we met
I wasn't looking for love
I was looking for fun
Some stupid memories
With some college friends
But sometimes I swear I can hear
All the words you wish you said
Sometimes I can I taste it too
Your regret
Your regret
Cause you're sippin Rum and Cola
And you're wishing you could hold her
But the truth is you didn't know her
Because she left as quickly as she came
And you're sippin Rum and Cola
With the devil on your shoulder
Does he keep her warm
Does he hold her?
Now even forty proof can't numb the pain
You let her slip away
And the night you met her was a shitty night
Almost skipped out on the party

Cause you let her slip away
You let her slip away
You let her slip away
You let her slip away
