teorstan – otis and aretha lyrics

Loading...

painting the town
she walks in with mystery
wanders over and sits down
and i down my drink
i’m trying to collect my thoughts
but i don’t know how to think

she laughs at all my jokes
she lets me bum a smoke
she smokes what i smoked when i was nineteen
and i tell her a few white lies
‘cos i know i won’t have to back them up tomorrow

and i don’t need to tell the truth
i don’t know you
i don’t need to

so, let’s quench our thirst
mixing alcohol with alcohol
give me two tequilas first
and she’s got my hand
she’s trying to teach my some old salsa move
my legs don’t understand

she’s drinking rum and coke
and let me bum a smoke
we share a pair each hour and a half
we burst out into the night
because the sweat’s been dripping down
into our eyes
there’s something ’bout the way
the world sounds sad outside
she said “i don’t know you”
but you don’t need to

then the room is spinning
we’re moving through the night
we dance to otis and aretha
and we moved inside the lights
someone told me we were sinning
but there’s no losers in this game
we danced to otis and aretha
and i’ll try not to remember your name
but i remember anyway…

so, she’s going home
my best friend walks her back
so she’s not going home alone
and that’s alright
i’ll make friends with the doorman
who kicked me out last thursday night

we share a little joke
he lets me bum a smoke
we buy a round and then the lights come on
and i’ve no need to tell him lies
‘cos i wax lyrical about this girl i met
and he’s asking if i’ll see that girl again
oh, it’s as if i never even matured
and i don’t know you – no, no, no
but i’ll take you home
i’ll still take you home
i’ll still take you home
and i’ll try not to remember…
