When I Faint
When I Faint
Well, thought that you were all I got,
So ain't you or ain't you really not;
For me bartender got another shot
Because he said I sure drink a lot.
First did see you on dance floor;
Next thing you were out the door;
Year ago I quit keeping score,
After not seeing you anymore.
One kiss for you and forget about me;
Now whole story I'm startin' to see;
Better go ahead and cut you free,
Never could pass test for sobriety.
Went out and bought a lot of paint
To cover up each and every ain't;
Then someone said I was a saint
On floor will find my face when I faint
