Goddess Lyrics

I took a night out from my home

Thought it would beat being alone

Some friends and I were going to see a show

I'd be out 'til morning, but nobody would know

I turn my key, I blink, I'm there

I need my drink, the music blares

Couple hundred shoes moving over the wood

No, I don't want to dance 'cause I'm no good

I'm just here to sip some Crown

So what if it bogs me down?

So they're out of the Crown - I'll make it double Jack

Need me something to quell my aching back

I turn around inside my seat

I scan the room, I feel the beat

I was trying to shut out the world like a fool

Eyes like emeralds glue me to my stool

She had dark, brown hair woven by sages

Her dress as shiny as the biggest stage is

Suddenly, I can't turn back

Man, you should have seen the way she wore that black

Looking back, I guess I smiled

She came and sat down with me for a while

Suddenly, she grabbed my hand

To start to pull me closer to her favorite band

We banged our heads; we blew our voices

If only I had made more stupid choices

Suddenly, the past just stings

Man, if I were braver, I'd have asked her things

How do you make my knees so weak?

How do you make me want to speak?

How can you make me stare at you

Over everyone else that's in this room?

Is there something I could do

That would let me leave this place with you?

Do you know I'm amazed with how you move

And that you make me useless - I approve

Of your dark lipstick and wild nature

I wished to God that I'd up and date her

Suddenly, I want you bad

I couldn't just be happy with the one I had

She's got my heart in her makeup casket

I put my eggs in a burning basket

If I knew then what I know now

I'd find a way to tell her how I felt somehow

I need someone at least half that crazy

There ain't a single chance in hell she'd take me

But maybe I'll see her again

The living, breathing Goddess made of porcelain

I let her slip, and I regret it

What are the chances that I can forget it?

Finally, the worst of shames

Both of us were far too gone to ask for names
