LAST CALL FOR TROUBLE

Bartender’s wiping down the counter Like he’s seen this all before Same old ghosts in different dresses Falling through that swinging door My lipstick’s faded on the glass now My heels are tired from the floor And then you walk in like bad weather Like I ain’t learned from you before I should leave I know I should But lonely never listens Like it should It’s last call for trouble And there you stand again Looking like a bad idea I swore I’d never let back in Last call for trouble And I’m too weak to run One more drink One more lie One more night till morning comes You pull that chair like nothing happened Like time ain’t passed at all You talk soft like you remember How I always take the fall The band plays low, the room gets smaller Your hand brushes mine too slow And every lesson that I learned Starts slipping out the door My mind says no My body stays Funny how old fires Still burn this way It’s last call for trouble And I can taste it on your breath Like whiskey, smoke, and promises That always end in wrecks Last call for trouble And Lord I know this song Same old tune Same old blues And still I sing along Maybe I don’t miss you Maybe I miss the flame Maybe pain feels warmer When it knows your name It’s last call for trouble And the lights are coming on You kiss me like tomorrow Ain’t waiting just beyond Last call for trouble And I know how this will end Me alone At closing time Swearing I won’t call again Last call... For trouble... And I drank it all...
