[Verse 1]
Woke up in August too scared to make my bed
It’s like I can only sleep by the shape you left
And every time the phone rings, I hope to God it’s you
But it’s back to the bottle to see these summer nights through

[Pre-Chorus]
Late nights, grey skies, roll the dice, I’m too much for you
She’s date night, warm fire, soft eyes, we’re in different shoes

[Chorus]
They say opposites attract, but clearly I misunderstood
No, whisky and wine don’t mix like I thought they would
Like I thought they would

[Verse 2]
I’m a hopeless romantic, I told you I’d buy you the moon
But roses and postcards are all that I managed to do
And every time the door rings, my heart skips a beat or two
But it’s the flowers I’ve sent, sent right back with the petals removed

[Pre-Chorus]
Late nights, grey skies, roll the dice, I’m too much for you
She’s date night, warm fire, soft eyes, we’re in different shoes

[Chorus]
They say opposites attract, but clearly I misunderstood
No, whisky and wine don’t mix like I thought they would
Like I thought they would
