You don't have to drink tonight
why don't we just get some sleep
'Cause I'm tired of cryin' in driveways
as you slur the words you speak
has been an evil thing to you
Makes you aw fully hard to love
from a lover's point of view
And I'll never under stand
how you wound up in the shape you're in
But I'll always be the fool that fell
for you and your burnin' skin
I'll be prayin' for you and pinin' for you
and hop in' you get some rest
But from a lover's point of view
it's all been hard to watch at best
'Cause from where I'm standin'
you got a long climb ahead
I'll be there to wipe the vomit
when you cannot lift your head
Because a lover doesn't leave
when times like these get dark
I'll be there to watch the sunrise
when we reclaim your heart
And I'll pick you up downtown
when you're grinnin' with a busted lip
'Cause you're not known for backin' down
and those boys are known for talkin' shit
But now's about the time, look,
Are you gonna be a good man to me
or die the way your mother died
'Cause from where I'm standin'
you got a long climb ahead
I'll be there to wipe the vomit
when you cannot lift your head
Because a lover doesn't leave
when times like these get dark
I'll be there to watch the sunrise
when we reclaim your heart
