"If It All Goes South" lyrics

"If It All Goes South"

It's alright to feel so good around somebody
It's alright to feel it might not always last
"Would you like to?" "I would love to
And as a matter of fact, I'm very glad you asked"

Maybe we're just a little sweet on each other
Maybe we will do no damage, and that's fine
'Til we're kissing in the passenger seat
Holding up the drive-through order line

I get misty when I think of it
The end, that is
And everything unsaid, when I'm lying in my bed
But in the morning when I wake up and I think of you
It's clearer in my head, yeah

'Cause we're singing too loud at a restaurant
And the waiter say, "Keep it down, whatcha want?!"
And the way I feel now, you're the only one
And if it all goes south, it was a lot of fun

Suddenly we're sneaking all around 'til the break of dawn
Undercover like they don't even know we're gone
And the way I feel now, you're the only one
And if it all goes south, it was a lot of fun

[scatting]

It's alright to know you might not have the answer
It's alright to know you might not ever know
It's like writing up your critical review before you even see the show
Then you don't bother to go

Maybe nothing ever plays out like in the movies
Maybe every lovely thing must have an end
But you're sleeping in my sweater
And I'm introducing you to my best friend

I get misty when I think of it
The end, that is
And everything I doubt
Thinking, "What's it all about?"
We're drinking light beer 'til the future's looking real clear
Getting one more and closing out
That's what I'm talking about

'Cause we're singing too loud at a restaurant
And the waiter say, "Keep it down, whatcha want?!"
And the way I feel now, you're the only one
And if it all goes south, it was a lot of fun

Call me while you're kind of freaking out 'round 10 to 1
And I come over and we talk 'til we see the sun
Yeah, you're the only one
And if it all goes south, it was a lot of fun

[scatting]
And if it all goes south, it was a lot of fun

When it's short-lived by a little bit
It's a shame, isn't it?
Leaving everything unsaid
Keeping it all in your head

But we're happy and we're having fun
We're holding on, we're hanging by a thread

And we're singing too loud at a restaurant
And everybody say, "Shut up! Sit down!"
Fooling all around, and now you're the only one
And if it all goes south, it was a lot of fun

Four-alarm firefighting, nothing but a water gun
Tagging out at third base, nearly had a home run
Yeah, you're the only one
And if it all goes south, we had a lot of fun, didn't we, oh

[scatting]
And if it all goes south, we had a lot of fun
[scatting]
If it all goes south, we had a lot of fun
[scatting]
If it all goes south, well we had a lot of fun
