I've been hanging around this girl and she wanted to datenI liked her just fine, but boy I'd love to fuck hernI met her at a party when the cops rode upnShe asked to take me home so I hopped in her trucknnWe kicked up at the gravel on the way to her doornWasn't five minutes 'til my clothes were on the floornI've been hitting at the bottle since the sun went downnAnd I was willing for whomever was aroundnnAnyways it's nice knowing there's a pretty girlnOn the other end of all my long ended lettersnAnd I scribbled and I scrabbled and I score from the roadnnIt was getting pretty heavy so I proposed a plannSaid I'd like to try at being your girlfriendnShe knew how to drink from the bottom of the shelfnShe could make them laugh until they pissed themselvesnnI figured if we could settle for this drag of a townnIf we could settle for friends who hang aroundnIf we could settle for disappointment,nThen I think that we can learn to settle for thisnnShe was a mess, and I was a messnI thought it be a good idea to get wrecked togethernBut when I came home I was feeling much betternSo I packed my shit and leftnnThere was this boy that I found sweetnSometimes I crawl under his covers late at nightnWe don't fuck, we barely speaknHe just wraps me in his arms real tightnnAnd when he breathes on the back of my neck,nWhen he brushes my skin against hisnIt feels good to know I've got my patience backnnWe've got pills to ease our painnAnd we've got bodies to hush our lonelinessnWith enough of the two, I think we're gonna make it through all rightnnWe can get naked togethernTake dirty naps, whatevernJust as long as we suffer apart from one anothernYou can hold my hand but you can never hold my heartnnWe can lie to all our friendsnCall in sick or whatevernJust as long as we suffer apart from one anothernYou can hold my hand but you can never hold my heart
