A Public Place
Kai Nygard
I would buy me a beer
if I was you
to waste the night away
and regret living in the morning,
just to forget, for a moment,
what happened today
I would buy me a beer
if I was you
to build up enough courage
for me to walk up to the lady
with the dark skirt, high heels
and undressing eyes
I would buy me a beer
if I was you
to numb the pain
before I take the long walk home
to an empty fridge
and a broken mattress
I would buy me a beer
if I was you
to taste the golden lager
on the tip of my tongue
and in the bottom of my heart
I would buy me a beer
if I was you
so we can sit here
and become the friends we never
should have been
I would buy me a beer
if I was you
because I would know
what you had to go through
