Bring her to me

Buzzin’ on caramel whiskey

Laughin’ with the night

My friend said, “Come meet somebody”

And I said, “Alright”

You were standin’ on that front porch

Like you knew my name

Just signed away your old life

Same night I did the same

I reached out to shake your hand

We both forgot to let go

Funny how forever starts

Long before you know

Half a mile down that blacktop road

I already knew

She called your phone, said take me home

You said, “Bring her to me”

We bought a pack of cigarettes

Drove with the windows down

Didn’t talk much at all

Both of us already knowing now

The silence hung between us

Thick as smoke in the cab

I slid across into your lap

Sizing you up like that

That kiss hit harder

Than anything I’d ever felt before

Like all that flirting finally broke

And we didn’t need it anymore

Lord, we put that mattress through hell

Had the neighbors wonderin’ what fell

Moonshine off your lips on mine

And left them sheets all torn in two

By the time the sun came sneakin’ in

We’d run out of things to prove

Funny how a night so reckless

Turned into forever with you

Half a mile down that blacktop road

I already knew

She called your phone, said take me home

You said, “Bring her to me”

And I still hear it

“Bring her to me”
