Natalie Livingston - Reuben Lyrics

Brooklyn bound train on a Sunday night
To a housewarming party in Park Slope
Something in my gut told me this was right
My head said be a good girl but my heart said no

I start drinking as soon as I arrive
I don't know anyone here but it's a vibe
I'm looking for familiar faces when
You walk right through the door and you catch my eye

Reuben with the London accent
And the mullet haircut and the button down shirt
Reuben you're not the first
But you're the first one to cure my hurt
Reuben run away with me
What would you think if we went and got married
Reuben you're hotter than I thought
Come home with me and touch me in the dark

In Seth's bedroom drinking a beer
Telling me that I should get out of here
That London is better than New York City
But New York is better because it has me

Dancing in my kitchen under neon lights
I'm your American girl and you're playing American Boy
Teaching me how to dance
You're my new favorite toy

Reuben with the London accent
And the mullet haircut and the button down shirt
Reuben you're not the first
But you're the first one to cure my hurt
Reuben run away with me
What would you think if we went and got married
Reuben you're hotter than I thought
Come home with me and touch me in the dark

Crashing through my apartment door
Mucho gusto señor give me more more more
Crashing into you I think I'm in love
With you and your intoxicating touch
Asking me to play my songs
Telling me I'm gonna be famous
As soon as you go I can't remember the feeling
Who knew loving a tourist could be fleeting

Reuben with the London accent
And the mullet haircut and the button down shirt
Reuben you're not the first
But you're the first one to cure my hurt
Reuben run away with me
What would you think if we went and got married
Reuben you're hotter than I thought
Come home with me and touch me in the dark
