white lightning

Ryan Beatty

Tilt back, take half of the fifth
I know when to start
I don t know when to quit
You call and I can t resist
You re the first of your kind
And the last on my lips

I know you re working hard
So you can stay, if you don t break my heart
Sometimes I don t know what I want
Until you take it away

All the tears that I cry
All the ways I get by
To keep the feeling alive (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
I see the pain in your eyes
It s only shame in goodbye
So don t leave me here on my own

Hey, thanks for the dance and the kiss
White lightning I go, until you pull me back in
He s bright when everything dims
And no one is mine, if no one is him

Oh, let s not make this hard
Sometimes I shy away so I don t fall apart
But now I wish on every star
That you don t walk away
I said, Now, let s not make this hard
It s my religious shame that keeps me en garde
Sometimes I don t know what I want
Until I can t have my way

All the tears that I cry
All the ways I get by
To keep the feeling alive (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
I see the pain in your eyes
It s only shame in goodbye
So don t leave me here on my own
