Between The Bars
Elliott Smith
Letra

Drink up, baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do, you won't but you might
The potential you'll be that you'll never see
The promises you'll only make

Drink up with me now, and forget all about
The pressure of days, do what I say
And I'll make you okay, drive them away
The images stuck in your head

People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
They push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

Drink up baby, look at the stars
I'll kiss you again between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught

Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine
Keep you apart, deep in my heart
Separate from the rest where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot

People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
They push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
