From A Lover's Point Of View

(álbum: Elisabeth - 2020)

You don't have to drink tonight why don't we just get some sleep
'Cause I'm tired of crying in driveways as you slur the words you speak
I know growing up has been an evil thing to you
Makes you awful hard to love from a lover's point of view
And I'll never understand how you wound up in the shape your in
But I'll always be the fool who fell for you in your burning skin
I'll be praying for you and pining for you and hoping you get some rest
But from a lover's point of view it's all been hard to watch at best

'Cause from where I'm standing you got a long climb ahead
I'll be there to wipe the vomit when you cannot lift your head
'Cause a lover doesn't leave when times like these get dark
I'll be there to watch the sunrise when we reclaim your heart

And I'll pick you up downtown when you're grinning with a busted lip
'Cause you're not known for backing down and those boys are known for talking shit
But now's about the time, look, you really got to decide
Are you gonna be a good man to me or die the way you're mother died

'Cause from where I'm standing you got a long climb ahead
I'll be there to wipe the vomit when you cannot lift your head
'Cause a lover doesn't leave when times like these get dark
I'll be there to watch the sunrise when we reclaim your heart

You don't have to drink tonight why don't we just get some sleep
'Cause I'm tired of crying in driveways as you slur the words you speak
