lyrics

We were knock-down sore on the drop-down floor
‘Til we couldn’t reply
Through the downhill door where every more means more
‘Though we couldn’t say why

All unbelievers, underachievers,
We give ourselves to whoever will receive us
We know the story,
And ‘though we’re sorry,
Still, we’ll be the last to go

But when we go clear,
Drunk is a holiday
So come on along for the ride
Disappear here,
Fade into faraway
Come in, it’s cold outside
Carmelita, hold me tight,
Give me something I can fight

The calm, beguiling,
Until you’re smiling
Our little slice of forever to be whiling
Where e’er I wander
I never worry
‘Though I be the last to know

But when we go clear,
Drunk is a holiday
So come on along for the ride
Disappear here,
Fade into faraway
Come in, it’s cold outside
Oh, what a scene,
Oh, what a sight
Morning is broken,
Get out of the light
Disappear here,
Oh, what a sight
I will be yours ‘til the end of the night

So come on along for the ride

Come in, it’s cold outside
Carmelita, hold me tight
Give me something I can fight
