You admonish me of the consequence
If I do, what I’m about to do

Running back and forth not seeing eye to eye
You and I, in the middle of July

And all of our closest friends
Getting drunk again
Wayward, in need of human bookends
Doing what we can
To keep their heads from meeting the pavement

Get ready, take a deep breath and let’s be out
Put on your evening gown, for a night on the town
I’m not asking for forgiveness or a second chance, just want to give you what you deserve
To be waited and serve, you say I got a lot of nerve

You admonish me of the consequence
Don’t subject me to sufferance
I just want to make amends

With some tender love and romance
Don’t give me that abhorred glance
Come here, let me kiss you and hold your hand
