lyrics

I’m getting kinda nervous
See you walking through the bar
And I catch your eyes on purpose
And my heart starts beating fast

Coke and whisky
Sugar coated lips
Talking to me
Love the taste of this

Cuz we’ve been here all night
Tryna pretend that you can’t see through me
Been avoiding your eyes
Tryna work out all the looks you gave me
Cold air
Dim lights
Your eyes reflecting mine
Still drinking when the bar called time
Nineteen and boxed red wine

Now the evening light is dying
Last orders at the bar
And everybody’s leaving
Now we’re drinking in the dark

Table’s clearing
Everyone’s gone home
Heartbeat racing
Just you and me alone

Cuz we’ve been here all night
Tryna pretend that you can’t see through me
Been avoiding your eyes
Tryna work out all the looks you gave me
Cold air
Dim lights
Your eyes reflecting mine
Still drinking when the bar called time
Nineteen and boxed red wine

We lean in for a picture
Feel you brush against my side
Capturing this feeling
Immortalise this night

Cuz we’ve been here all night
Tryna pretend that you can’t see through me
Been avoiding your eyes
Tryna work out all the looks you gave me
Cold air
Dim lights
Your eyes reflecting mine
Still drinking when the bar called time
Nineteen and boxed red wine

Their debut single 'You Only Like Me When You're Eight Drinks Down' released in July 2019, and since then they've continued to refine their alt-pop sound. ... more
