Champagne

(album: Pray For it - 2020)

Give me a sip of that sweet lie
Don't tell me the grass ain't greener there
Give me a taste of that sweet life
Don't tell me, 'cause it's gonna be mine

Give me a sip, a sip, a sip
Of it, it, it, it

I want a sip of it, of it
Just another sip of it, of it, ah
I want a sip of it, of it (Give, give me a sip)
Just another sip of it, of it, ah
I want a sip of it, of it (Of that sweet lie)
Just another sip of it, of it, ah
I want a sip of it, of it
Just another sip of it, of it, ah

Haven't I lost my voice by now?
You gonna keep clarifying, let me out
Tight-lipped smile, took the neighbourhood vow
Above the white noise of a principal crowd
You may hate your part in this
But you have always been trusted

Don't tell me
About the books you've read and the pages you fold
Don't tell me
About the colours you claim and the friends you hold

Don't tell me about my pain
Over champagne
Allow me to explain
My sham pain

Don't want a sip of it, of it
Not another sip of it, of it, ah
Don't want a sip of it, of it
Not another sip of it, of it

I've got a history of just being understood
When you're reading his story, no surprise that you would
I miss the freedom I had in my childhood (Tell me)
Was it freedom? Was it just your neighbourhood?

Don't tell me
Now you've got it all figured out
Don't tell me
Now you've opened up somehow

Don't tell me about your pain
Over champagne
Don't want you to explain
Explain my sham pain

Give me a sip of that sweet lie
Don't tell me the grass ain't greener there
Don't tell me the grass ain't greener there

I want a sip of it, of it
Just another sip of it, of it (Don't tell me grass ain't greener there)
Just another sip of it, of it
Just another sip of it, of it

Champagne
Champagne
Don't want you to explain (Explain my sham pane)
Don't want you to explain (Explain my sham pane)
Don't want you to explain
Explain my sham pain

Don't want a sip of it, of it
Have to have a sip, a sip of it, ha
Don't want a sip of it, of it
Have to have a sip, a sip of it, ha
