lyrics

i remember: you were 17
i was a little older, you were everything
you fell asleep in the crook of my arm
underneath the awning of a downtown bar
and i blinked my eyes so fast
and a thousand years had passed
and there is something still today
makes me believe every word you say
when you say i'm still the only one
you just can't walk away from
yeah, you talk a blue, blue streak
and your kisses make me weak

but i can't take you downtown no more
i can't stand here scratching at your door
the things you keep me around for, i can't give like before
yeah, you've drained me dry

and i still love you just the same
but i know when i've lost the game
and baby, i refuse to drown
in this river you've sold me down
yeah, you hold me like a baby
but you only tell me maybe

but i can't take you downtown no more
i can't stand here scratching at your door
the things you keep me around for, i can't give like before
yeah, you've drained me dry

and i could go on, grateful you were halfway mine
or i can kiss you hard one last time

but i can't take you downtown no more
and i'm not gonna stand here scratching at your door
the things you keep me around for, i can't give like before
yeah, you've drained me dry
