[Verse 1] 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 I know growin' up Has been an evil thing to you Makes you awfully hard to love From a lover's point of view [Verse 2] And I'll never understand How you wound up in the shape you're in But I'll always be the fool Who fell for you in your burnin' skin I'll be prayin’ for you and pinin’ for you And hopin' you get some rest But from a lover’s point of view It's all been hard to watch at best [Chorus] '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 'Cause a lover doesn't leave When times like these get dark I'll be there to watch the sunrise When we reclaim your heart [Verse 3] 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, love You really got to decide "Are you gonna be a good man to me Or die the way your mother died?" [Chorus] '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 'Cause a lover doesn't leave When times like these get dark I'll be there to watch the sunrise When we reclaim your heart [Outro] And 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
