Won't somebody take me out tonight
I want to shine like the street light
The colored lamps outside the bars
Outshine the brightest stars
I got a new hair cut today.
I want the rain to wash my broken heart away.
And like any sinner i'm gonna skip dinner
If you'd only take me out tonight
I've got a bunch of stupid things to say
And tons of compliments to give away
And i've got fifty bucks that you can borrow.
And i wont be able to remember it tomorrow.
This city is a cold and lonely place
I want to look into an unfamiliar face.
If you come with me you're my best friend forever.
And we can make new memories together.
Won't somebody take me out tonight
I want to shine like the street light
The colored lamps outside the bars
Outshine the brightest stars
I got a new hair cut today.
I want the rain to wash my broken heart away.
And like any sinner i'm gonna skip dinner
If you'd only take me out tonight
Where the music's loud and the people bright.
Feels like i'm falling apart
But somewhere in this town there's a bar
Where i can drown my broken heart.
If you'd only take me out tonight.
