Cinderella

The speaker sits atop the table I persist to ask you a favor Under my breath, I whisper, please With no intent but to invest in the lack of company I know this is as good as gold Tonight I'll be out back, kicking it with old friends Listening to every song you can't stand The night is young, and so are we There is no place I'd rather be Fast talking strangers, trying to get a ride To the joint by the fire station We've got no plans, there is no need Just say the word, lay it on me Am I terminal in permanence, in permanence It does not apply here, seems to disappear when you're near Fixating on the thought Am I conscious or clever enough To keep you on my line To find a place in time To ask you if your thoughts of me ever will subside Tonight I'll be out back, kicking it with old friends Listening to every song you can't stand The night is young, and so are we There is no place I'd rather be Fast talking strangers, trying to get a ride To the joint by the fire station We've got no plans, there is no need Just say the word, lay it on me And I've got nothing left to lose but you Lose but you Stuck between lessons learned Or this could be different And I can't get you off my mind This time Tonight I'll be out back, kicking it with old friends Listening to every song you can't stand The night is young, and so are we There is no place I'd rather be Fast talking strangers, trying to get a ride To the joint by the fire station We've got no plans, there is no need Just say the word, lay it on me Lay it on me Lay it on me
