Written by Elliott Smith
Drink up baby Stay up all night The things you could do You won't but you might The potential you'll be That you'll never see The promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now And forget all about the pressure of days Do what I say and I'll make you okay And drive them away The images stuck in your head
People you've been before That you don't want around anymore They push, shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still
Drink up baby Look at the stars I'll kiss you again between the bars Where I'm seeing you there With your 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 keeping the things you forgot
People you've been before That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still
