The speaker sits atop the table I persist to ask you a favor
Under my breath, I whisper, please
With no intent but to invest in the lack of company
I know this is as good as gold
Tonight I'll be out back, kicking it with old friends
Listening to every song you can't stand
The night is young, and so are we
There is no place I'd rather be
Fast talking strangers, trying to get a ride
To the joint by the fire station
We've got no plans, there is no need
Just say the word, lay it on me
Am I terminal in permanence, in permanence
It does not apply here, seems to disappear when you're near
Fixating on the thought
Am I conscious or clever enough
To keep you on my line
To find a place in time
To ask you if your thoughts of me ever will subside
Tonight I'll be out back, kicking it with old friends
Listening to every song you can't stand
The night is young, and so are we
There is no place I'd rather be
Fast talking strangers, trying to get a ride
To the joint by the fire station
We've got no plans, there is no need
Just say the word, lay it on me
And I've got nothing left to lose but you
Lose but you
Stuck between lessons learned
Or this could be different
And I can't get you off my mind
This time
Tonight I'll be out back, kicking it with old friends
Listening to every song you can't stand
The night is young, and so are we
There is no place I'd rather be
Fast talking strangers, trying to get a ride
To the joint by the fire station
We've got no plans, there is no need
Just say the word, lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me
