I’ll Look Good When I’m Sober Songtext
von Lovejoy

I′ve been thinking about you
A lot more than I should
I've caught my finger slipping up the same page
Of my telephone book
But just hear me out, or let me in
Signing the guest list, places we′ve been
I'm hoping with a soft spot
That there's a change of bumping into you
Tell me what does your heart say?
Would you listen anyway
I promise you, I′ll look good when I′m sober
Tell me what have you got, when you gave it all away
I promise you, I'll look good when I′m sober


Still mingling with bouncers, unhappy where I'm stood
Feeling like I miss the way you kiss me
Mimic your lips with a sharp left hook
So I look to her, took on the chin
Blood on a jumper, tuck your shirt in
Hopefully don′t need you
But comforting pretending that I do, o-oh!
Tell me what does your heart say?
Would you listen anyway
I promise you, I'll look good when I′m sober
Tell me what have you got, when you gave it all away
I promise you, I'll look good when I'm sober
And you know just what to say
(And you know just what to say)
But the phone call′s not the same
(But the phone call′s not the same)
(Alright, next bit)


So just hear me out, or let me in
I miss the hangnails, bits of your skin
Those lies of hers, looking at him
I think a punch would, hurt less than this
Bathe under an ocean, of dirtied hotel lights
The gasping of attention, the rolling of your eyes
Oh, don't make me go
Life could be so much better, could be what you want
Cold pillars of steel, pressed before my tongue
Love of it with your lips, would settle for a gun
Tell me what does your heart say?
Would you listen anyway
I promise you, I′ll look good when I'm sober
Tell me what have you got, when you gave it all away
I promise you, I′ll look good when I'm sober
Tell me what does your heart say (I′ll look good when I'm sober)
Would you listen anyway?
And I promise you, I'll look good when I′m sober
When you even got luck, yet we′ve been so alone
(I'll look good when I′m sober)
I'll look good when I′m sober
Tell me what does your heart say (I'll look good when I′m sober)
Would you listen anyway
And I promise you, I'll look good when I'm sober
When you even got luck, yet we′ve been so alone
(I′ll look good when I'm sober)
