From the recording Ya Only Love Me When You’re Drunk – And Damn You Hardly Ever Drink!
Rejection or what we perceive as rejection is never fun, but some good old hard rocking shuffle can always make things a little better. Ya Only Love Me When You’re Drunk – And Damn You Hardly Ever Drink! is a celebration of realizing the ugly truth and taking the hits of doom as they come in the never-ending endeavor of living life without staring at the ceiling too much.
Ride the Train!
Lyrics
When I first saw you standing lonely in that room
Your sparkling eyes gave me another bloody hit of doom
I had to meet you, I had to know, wanted to be so close to you
You see you made my sleeping flowers bloom
And as we spoke that lonesome girl just went away
Our hearts in tune, our worried minds so far, they ’ve gone astray
And while together, you flew like feather, you hit the break and left me sway
And said "okay, I’m gone, call it a day"
Ya only love me when you’re drunk and damn you hardly ever drink
My times away from you get tough, I feel blue like I wanna sing
But when you see me, you’re coming near me, you stare at me and wink
I can’t stop lovin’ you, oh babe, no matter what you think
Oh, I got to drink
I know you wanna approach, but you’re so fearful of the heat
Those dumb constraints of yours, I know they always force you to retreat
You wanna flea, want to be free, can see you running into me
Girl, don’t you worry I can be discreet
Ya only love me when you’re drunk and damn you hardly ever drink
My times away from you get tough, I feel blue like I wanna sing
But when you see me, you’re coming near me, you stare at me and wink
I can’t stop lovin' you, oh babe, no matter what you think
Lord, I got to drink
Oh, just leave the past behind
No, we don’t have boundless time
Yeah, the hardest part is to make up your mind
Your vision is blurry, but I’m in a hurry we’re now in our prime
Ya only love me when you’re drunk, but damn I really want you still
You’re tangled up to who knows what, I don’t know how to feel
But then I get to catch your eye and I believe it’s real
You push me baby much too hard I’m spinning like a wheel
Oh, I want you still
Ya only love me when you’re drunk and damn you hardly ever drink
My times away from you get tough, I feel blue my chances sink
And then I get to catch your eye you and I just wanna scream
I can’t stop lovin’ you, oh babe, no matter what you think
Oh, I got to
Oh, I got to
Oh, I got to...
