[Verse 1]
Drink up baby,
stay up all n
ight
With the thing
s you could do
You won't but
you might
The potential
you'll be that
you'll never
see
The promises y
ou'll only mak
e
Drink up with
me now
And forget all
about the pre
ssure of days
Do what I say
and I'll make
you okay
And drive them
away
The images stu
ck in your hea
d
[Chorus]
The people you
've been befor
e
That you don't
want around a
nymore
That push and
shove and won'
t bend to your
will
I'll keep them
still
[Verse 2]
Drink up baby,
look at the s
tars
I'll kiss you
again between
the bars
Where I'm seei
ng you there w
ith your hands
in the air
Waiting to fin
ally be caught
Drink up one m
ore time and I
'll make you m
ine
Keep you apart
, deep in my h
eart
Separate from
the rest, wher
e I like you t
he best
And keep the t
hings you forg
ot
[Chorus]
The people you
've been befor

That you don't
want around a

That push and
shove and won'
t bend to your
will
I'll keep them
still
