[Intro - Instrumental] [Verse 1] We missed the train by half a minute Your phone was dead, my wallet wasn't in it Two wrong turns and nowhere to park Three of us laughing alone in the dark The place we picked had closed at ten So somebody said, "We'll figure it out then" Twenty bucks between the whole damn crowd No way in hell we're turning around [Pre-Chorus] Nothing went the way we planned it Maybe that's what made it good We had no idea where we were going So we went wherever we could [Chorus] Somehow the night worked out No money, no plan, no way back now Wrong side of town, singing way too loud Everything went wrong somehow But damn, look at us right now We couldn't get one thing right Still wouldn't trade a second of that night If perfect means we'd miss all this Then fuck perfect, I'll take this [Verse 2] We found a bar with a busted sign One friend disappeared around closing time Found him outside making three new friends Swearing he'd known those guys since ten Someone spilled something down my shirt Your cheap-ass shoes were starting to hurt We split cold fries five different ways Then walked for miles 'cause nobody paid [Pre-Chorus] Every little bad decision Turned into another story Maybe getting where you're going Ain't the part worth remembering [Chorus] Somehow the night worked out No money, no plan, no way back now Wrong side of town, singing way too loud Everything went wrong somehow But damn, look at us right now We couldn't get one thing right Still wouldn't trade a second of that night If perfect means we'd miss all this Then fuck perfect, I'll take this [Bridge] Years from now we'll get it wrong Who said what and who came along We'll argue where the hell we'd been And somebody'll swear it happened different But I'll remember looking around At tired faces in some part of town Thinking if this is going nowhere I don't wanna get there [Final Chorus] Somehow the night worked out Still broke, still lost, still laughing now Sun coming up and we're miles from home Best damn night that nobody planned With nothing going like it should We couldn't get one thing right Still wouldn't trade a second of that night If perfect means we'd miss all this Then fuck perfect, I'll take this Yeah, fuck perfect I'll take this [Outro - Instrumental]
