I'll Look Good When I'm Sober

[Verse 1] I've been thinking about you a lot more than I should I’ve caught my finger slipping up the same page of my telephone book But just hear me out or let me in Signing the guest list, places we've been I'm hoping with a soft spot that there’s a chance of bumping into you [Chorus] Tell me what does your heart say Would you listen anyway? I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober Tell me what have you got When you gave it all away I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober [Verse 2] Still mingling with bouncers, unhappy where I'm stood Feeling like I miss thе way you kiss me Mimic your lips with a sharp left hook So I look to her, took on thе chin Blood on a jumper, tuck your shirt in Hopefully we don't need you But comfort in pretending that I do, oh [Chorus] Tell me what does your heart say Would you listen anyway? I promise you I'll look good when I’m sober Tell me what have you got When you gave it all away I promise you I’ll look good when I'm sober [Bridge] And you know just what to say (And you know just what to say) But the phone call’s not the same (But the phone call's not the same) [Interlude] (—naht ssel truh dluow hcnup a kniht I) (siht naht ssel truh dluow hcnup a kniht I) [Bridge] So just hear me out, or let me in I miss the hangnails, pits of your skin Those eyes of hers, looking at him I think a punch would hurt less than this Bathed under an ocean, of turgid hotel lights The gasping of attention, the rolling of your eyes Oh, don't make me go I could be so much better Could be what you want Cold pillars of steel pressed before my tongue Would love if it were your lips Would settle for a gun [Chorus] Tell me what does your heart say Would you listen anyway? I promise you I'll look good when I’m sober Tell me what have you got When you gave it all away I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober [Outro] Tell me what does your heart say (I'll look good when I'm sober) Would you listen anyway? And I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober When the evenings run it's course (I'll look good when I'm sober) I always end up at your door (Look good when I'm sober) Tell me what does your heart say (I'll look good when I'm sober) Would you listen anyway? And I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober When the evenings run it's course (I'll look good when I'm sober) I always end up at your door
