Last Call Cinderella

(Verse 1)
Neon lights on a nowhere town
Boots on tile, head hangin’ down
Bartender’s wipin’ up broken dreams
Same old jukebox, same old scene
Boys in flannel, boys in lace
I scan the room for a friendly face
They’re dancin’ close like I ain’t there
Guess I’m just breathin’ country air
(Pre-Chorus)
Mama said, “Son, don’t settle for less”
But small-town love’s a high-stakes guess
(Chorus)
I’m the last call Cinderella
One more whiskey, one more fella
Watchin’ midnight hit the floor
While I’m standin’ by the door
Glass slipper’s scuffed from runnin’
From every almost, every somethin’
I swear I’m tough, but hearts are tender
When you’re last call Cinderella
(Verse 2)
There’s a cowboy with a crooked grin
Says he’s “curious,” leans back in
But curiosity fades by dawn
Leaves me starin’ at the lawn
Lipstick stains on a solo cup
Every time I start to trust
They say, “You’re sweet, you’re just not him”
Like love’s some club I can’t get in
(Pre-Chorus)
I say I’m done, I say I’m through
But I still check my phone at two
(Chorus)
I’m the last call Cinderella
One more slow dance, maybe never
Watchin’ couples disappear
While I’m swallowin’ my fear
Fairy tales don’t fit my gender
Still I’m prayin’ for forever
I’m worn thin but won’t surrender
I’m last call Cinderella
(Bridge)
Maybe my prince is stuck in traffic
Maybe he’s scared or overdramatic
Maybe he’s prayin’ just like me
For someone who won’t just leave
I’m tired of bein’ almost chosen
Tired of hearts half-open
But if I quit, then who am I?
Just a boy too scared to try
(Breakdown (soft))
Clock strikes twelve, the lights come on
I fix my crown and carry on
(Final Chorus (big, hopeful))
I’m the last call Cinderella
But I believe there’s somethin’ better
Somewhere past this barroom glow
There’s a hand I’m meant to hold
Glass slipper’s cracked but still it’s mine
And I’ll keep dancin’ past closin’ time
Yeah, love might make a fool of ya
But I ain’t givin’ up, hallelujah
I’m last call Cinderella
Still waitin’ on my fella
And I won’t give up on forever
(Outro)
Neon fades, but stars still shine
Maybe his heart’s lookin’ for mine
