I know we've been close since we were kids
And you used to swing my way
Knock my door, come out to play
You'd tell me everything I'm always listening
To the stories that we made while we were sipping lemonade

But there's something in our soda
Now we're boozing, now we're older
We get nervous every time that we get close
But the music's g?tting louder
And the drinks are g?tting harder
Everybody knows the way that this thing goes

Take my hand and pull me closer
Kiss me now before I'm sober
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away

I'm singing hallelujah
I think my shirt would suit ya
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away

I don't wanna run away, run away, run away

It happens every time that we go out
Wish that I could walk you home
Instead I text you on your phone
Some drunken message that I know that I'll regret
It was simple in the days
When we were sipping lemonade

But there's something in our soda
Now we're boozing, now we're older
We get nervous every time that we get close
But the music's getting louder
And the drinks are getting harder
Everybody knows the way that this thing goes

Take my hand and pull me closer
Kiss me now before I'm sober
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away

I'm singing hallelujah
I think my shirt would suit ya
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away
I don't wanna run away, run away, run away

Won't ya stay with me tonight
