lyrics

I’m in the back of the pub
You’re drinking way too much
And saying that you love me
With your voice slurred slightly
Just enough to sound like a joke
Just a meaningless phrase I suppose

As you stumble
Your eyes as big as they could be
And you lean in for a kiss
But I resist cause I fear that you’ll miss me

But then you
Kiss me
And I feel something in me
I’ve never felt before
Life was such a bore
Before you went and kissed me

You’ve got your arm around her
Cornering me in to agree
When you say “isn’t she pretty?”
I smile and nod politely
Trying not to look rehearsed

And she shakes my hand and says:
“Hey its nice to meet ya, a good friend of his
Is a good friend of mine”
And that line
Replays over and over in my mind

As you stumble
Your eyes as big as they could be
And you lean in for a kiss
But I resist cause I fear that you’ll miss me

But then you
Kiss me
And I feel something in me
I’ve never felt before
Life was such a bore
Before you went and kissed me

You’ll go on home in your girlfriends arms
While I’m driving home alone in my car
Driving down this empty road got the radio up so loud
I’m trying to drown out how I liked the way it felt
Cause tomorrow you’ll pretend
Like nothing ever happened
Like it didn’t mean a thing
Like it didn’t mean a thing
When you pushed your lips into mine
Don’t lie don’t fucking lie!
Don’t act like you never, act like you never even

Kissed me
Like you never even kissed me
Like you never even did

Like you never even
Kissed me
Like you never even
Like you never even did

Kissed me
Kissed me
Kissed me

Kissed me
Kissed me
Kissed me

I’m in the back of the pub
You’re drinking way too much
And saying that you love me
