going to parties Lyrics

I'm going to parties in hopes that I see you

Thought I heard your voice when I looked in the rearview

Now I'm in the kitchen talking to strangers

Hoping tequila stings like your name does

Maybe I'll run in to a friend of a friend

And when you see the photo you'll pretend

You don't care

But you'll call me in the morning to check I got home

But we both know you want to make sure I'm alone

I'm lighting the candles now it's your birthday

You're stood with a smile leaning against the doorframe

Maybe I'm a headache you don't miss

Maybe you didn't go when you saw I was there

Maybe it just didn't phase you at all

Maybe I wasted my Sunday waiting for your call

And so I drive to these parties now

And I have to go home the way I came

And I never shot the tequila

Because no one ever mentioned your name

It's been so long now that nobody

Associates you with me

So I'll talk to you on the home

And imagine what you'd say

The thought of seeing you again

Is the only high I chase

And I just think that if you saw me

You would feel the same way too

And so I'm going to parties in hopes that I see you
