"Dining Alone" lyrics
"Dining Alone"
Same old shoes on the same old feet
Same colored tie every day of the week
Shampoo, conditioner, rinse, and repeat
Drip dry, do it again
I tell my woes to the knife and the spoon
Dining alone at a table for two
One glass of wine is plenty of time
To dream about all of the things that I'll never do
I wonder what it's like to fly a plane
To meet a girl on Friday night
And wake up next to her on Saturday
To swim across the ocean blue
To walk a mile upon the moon
To wear the crown and sit upon the throne
But it's getting late, this restaurant is closing
I guess I'd better go
I wander through the city, whistle a tune
Walk into a bar and ruin the mood
A dirty martini with an olive or two
Shake, pour, do it again
A couple more drinks, now they're kicking me out
I always get in trouble when I open my mouth
Stumble on home, fall into bed
And drift off into my head
I wonder what it's like to fly a plane
To meet a girl on Friday night
And wake up next to her on Saturday
To swim across the ocean blue
To walk a mile upon the moon
To wear the crown and sit upon the throne
But it's getting late, the sun is coming up
Off to work I go
Same old shoes on the same old feet
One-track mind, one-way street
Nothing's gonna change for the same old me
Eat, sleep, do it again
Eat, sleep, do it again
Thanks to Brie Huff for adding these lyrics.

Bang it out in Dawson
Get him then I lost him

Oh my Otis won't you come back down
On my way...
Ezra Bell - "Go With God" Well lately I've been picking up them pieces
Oh the pieces that I've been keeping for myself

But I...
Haley Heynderickx - "Drinking Song" There's a light at the end that I know
Where culprits on carpets make sense of it all
And the sky is all indigo
And the young ones just want to go home
And the edge of the world makes it seem
That...
The Wild Reeds - "Fruition" I used to love excuses then I realized they play no part
In real life that's conducive to the dream which I work hard
To bring fruition, to finish in good light
And the laziness behind me wasted all...
Punch Brothers - "My Oh My" Rise up, blinking in the sun
Wrapped in invisible wire
Something beautiful's gonna come
Out from underneath our thumbs
So let freedom vibrate, not ring
'Cause we can't listen to everyone
Wanna hear...
