lyrics

Amanda
by Shane Cooley

The bar is almost closed
And I'm making conversation with a stranger
I start to lose control
It always happens sooner or later

May Beelzebub take my soul
I scream senseless as I knock over a glass
The barkeep says it's time for me to go
If I want to keep any class

This is a little song that's just for you Amanda
Not that you will ever hear
And I'm just bitching like I always do
When I've had a couple
Your name it comes up dear

I scuffle out the door
The streets they are as empty as a war zone
And I ask what it's all for
What's the price of being alone

I know you're out there down that road
Somewhere out there in the darkness of the night
And I know that you just had to go
But that doesn't make it feel right

This is a little song that's just for you Amanda
Not that you would ever hear
And I'm just talking like I always do
When I've had a few
Your name it comes up dear

And I just want you to come home
I just want you to come home
Maybe you're just a vice or an excuse
But I tend to believe
That my love is true

This is a little song that's just for you Amanda
Not that you would care to hear
And I'm just bitching like I always do
When I've had a couple
When I've had a few
When I'm really fucked up
Your name it comes up dear

And I just want you to come home
