lyrics

I was driving drunk in the wind, I was still swerving.
I saw your eyes blood cold with lies, and it kissed my lips.
And I know you weren't waiting, I know you weren't waiting on the road.
And I know my life is changing. I know your midnight reasons, or so I'm told.

If you say : "Now, baby, I'm not just what you want."
If you say: "Now, baby, I only came here for a line."
If you say : "Now, baby, I'm not just what you want."
If you say: "Now, baby, I only came here for a line."

I was taking time, peeling lines through your hair.
And I know the road gets windy, I know the road grows dark in your eyes.
And I wasn't planning on drinking, and you were only there for a birthday line.

If you say : "Now, baby, I'm not just what you want."
If you say: "Little baby, I only came here for a line."
If you say : "Now, baby, I'm not just what you want."
If you say: "Little baby, I only came here for a line."

I was drunk at four in the morning, I was so alone.
Running from tigers and sheep skulls in my bed,
but I cannot look you that way.
I know I wish that was dead to answer you.

If you say : "Now, baby, I'm not just what you want."
If you say: "Little baby, I only came here for a line."
If you say : "Now, baby, I'm not just what you want."
If you say: "Little baby, I only came here for a line."
