Let Me Down Easy

She left her clothes in Kansas

Ever since she left her classes

So she could fill some glasses

She want a photograph

8 by 11 dreams

She's got that self-worth

She learned at 17

And I could work with that

Been working all week

She's been flirtin all night

Wishing she could own me

But I come with a lot of baggage

And a lot of ego, and a lot of fashion

Just give me that college magic

And I could probably make tonight pop

And she said:

Let me down easy

Or stay with me tonight

Say you don't need me

Or stay with me tonight

She left her cares on the bedpost

Next to the lipstick and the mentos

Savian and a candy necklace

She goes to places her friends won't

She's in the backyeard

Of her sorority

I'm thinking backseat

She's looking for the key

And I could work with that

Been working all month

She's been flirting all night

Lady I'm the wrong one

She said:

Let me down easy

Or stay with me tonight

Say you don't need me

Or stay with me tonight

Let me down easy

Or stay with me tonight

(Tonight tonight)

Let me down easy

Or stay with me tonight

(Tonight tonight)

She was like "who was that singing?"

I was off in the back room drinking

Savin something thinkin nothing

When I heard my phone start ringin

But you know I can't pick it up

'Cause I'm not in love

And I just with nobody(s?) trust

She left her friends in high school

She's thinking "why do I like you?

If I just make-do with a nice dude

I could make it to the white picket fence crew"

But it just won't work like that

When I wake it's on the road

You could take me in your room

But you can't take me home

She said:

Let me down easy

Or stay with me tonight

(Tonight tonight)

Say you don't need me

Or stay with me tonight

(Tonight tonight)

Oh

Let me down easy

Or stay with me tonight

(Stay with me)

Let me down easy

Or stay with me tonight

(Tonight tonight)
