Pretend It's Something Harder

It's just you and me tonight Belly up and pour a double Trussed up like a vodka tonic Wishing still won't make it true Shot of water, help a brother Gonna keep my word tonight Tell a lie my gut believes in Tell me there's some fire in you Keep them coming, poor another Good old water, nothin's wetter It's an open bar forever Fill'er up, and I'll say when First night of my brand new promise You instead of something better There's a woman waiting somewhere And I can't let her down again

TheCrookedPath

Not much to say. I'm a father of four, working to keep my pygmies fat and happy. I have always liked Robert Frost, but a recent book that I'd stumbled across introduced me to John Donne.
