Elliott Smith
Between The Bars
[Verse 1]
Drink up, baby, stay up all night
Things you could do, you won't, but you might
The potential you'll be, you'll never see
Promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now and forget all about
Pressure of days, do what I say
And I'll make you okay and drive them away
Images stuck in your head

[Chorus]
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push, shove, won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

[Verse 2]
Drink up, baby, look at the stars
And I'll kiss you again, between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there, hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught

Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine
Keep you apart, deep in my heart
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot
[Chorus]
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push, shove, won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
