Weeknight Crowd - Handsome Ghost

Some still morning in a separate home

Had a message waiting on a brand new phone

She sent me something when she changed her shirt

It was end of summer she was so sunburnt

Two turns later to the liquor store

Bought a nice new bottle that I can’t afford

Sat there sitting so my mind stayed clear

The bold ain’t bright enough to keep me here

And by the table spent, I could not forget

Body beating, wasted but not worn

I was cold to core

It’s been weeks at war

Born to battle, staring at you

I am leaving

Every either or

And when they closed the bar

Told you I was gone, come the weekend

Calmly speaking

Forward on

I saw you stunning by my midnight spot

Your mouth still running you were born to talk

Kept you busy always made your plans

You flashed two tickets to some indie band

The days slow dragging but the nights add up

The same thing happens like it always does

And I know you’re showing when your show gets out

I’ll wait you’re wading through the weeknight crowd

And by the table spent, I could not forget

Body beating, wasted but not worn

I was cold to core

It’s been weeks at war

Born to battle, staring at you

I am leaving

Every either or

And when they closed the bar

Told you I was gone, come the weekend

Calmly speaking

Forward on
