lyrics

You invite me to a party at a club and I tell you that I'll be there
But I leave out the part that I'm not big into parties
I grab a quick shower and grab a nice shirt and do up my hair
Take a deep breath as I throw myself to my wolves

Cut through the crowd to find you screaming with a smile
Greet me with a warm embrace before you recognize another face
I'll try to hide my awkwardness as you leave me stranded in a strange place

High five, goodbye
You're only the reason I came along
It's cool, I'm fine
I just do better when we're one on one

Lights out and dubstep up and everyone's on the dance floor
But I'm not that big into grinding with no-name women
I grab a hard drink and grab a quick seat and hang in the corner
Drop a deep sigh as I remember why I came

Cut through the crowd to find you in the middle of a mob
Greet me with a quick tug bailar before you recognize another face
I'll try to hide my awkwardness as you leave me stranded in a strange place

High five, goodbye
You're only the reason I came along
It's cool, I'm fine
I just do better when we're one on one

You're doing the rounds and you find me by myself
You ask me if there's something wrong
I don't wanna be a bother, don't wanna be your buzz kill
I assure you there's nothing wrong
But I was just wondering
Can I keep you for this last dance?

High five, goodbye
You're only the reason I came along
It's cool, I'm fine
I just do better when we're one on one
