[Verse 1]
Well, I spent all my money on a pack of cigarettes
For a lady that I love with a name I forget
That night I taught her how to laugh, she taught me how to slow dance
Tried to take her home, she said, "You don't stand a chance"
I’m the closest thing my mother had to a daughter
I used to be ashamed of that, but now I'm kind of flattered
I learned that my weakness is a weapon anyway
So I haven't touched a pretty thing in forty days

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like

[Verse 2]
I set out on a dream that I couldn’t understand
It made me happy, sad, loved, lonely, I don't know what I had
A few too many favours from a few too many fake friends
I wake up in the afternoon and do it all again
Yeah, I punched a man on his wedding night
I'm still trying to figure out how to apologize
I learned that morning light can't fix nothing anyway

[Chorus]
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like
[Post-Chorus]
Can you feel it, baby?
I can feel it, baby, I feel it coming through (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like (Keep it goin'!)
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like
Everything is alright
If only for the night
I forgot what it feels like

[Outro]
Well, I spent all my money on a pack of cigarettes
For a lady that I love with the name I forget
And I learned the morning light, it can't fix nothing anyway
So I haven't touched a pretty thing in forty days
