"You Here Tonight" lyrics

"You Here Tonight"

I bet you're living in the city, never thinking of me
And I bet you fill the spot I used to be
Bet you're doing just fine out on your own
I bet your momma's real glad that you came back home

I bet you're moving so fast you lost track of time
While I'm counting the days since you said goodbye
Bet you finally got the job you's always dreaming about
I bet you find your way, bet it all worked out

You're still on my mind after closing time
The whiskey in my blood, this ain't working right
Close my tab, and when I close my eyes
The only thing I see is you here tonight

I bet he treats you like a queen, bet he takes you out
Bet when you're with your friends, all you're talking about
That you're never alone, never drinking like me
And I bet he's all the things that I'll never be

You're still on my mind after closing time
The whiskey in my blood, this ain't working right
Close my tab, and when I close my eyes
The only thing I see is you here tonight

You're still on my mind after closing time
The whiskey in my blood, this ain't working right
Close my tab, and when I close my eyes
The only thing I see...
You're still on my mind after closing time
The whiskey in my blood, this ain't working right
Close my tab, and when I close my eyes
The only thing I see is you here tonight
