It happened again late last night

When the moon was on the rise

I was sipping my favorite drink

And I was laughing and joking and

flirting with this stranger

Some guy

And sometimes I'm like a stupid little girl

Dressed up in my mama's high heeled shoes

And I'm playing at these grown up games

And I don't even know the rules

And I'm lying to myself

And I'll be lying next to him

Burying my loneliness in this gin

And I'll be flying high again

Band plays some slow number

And the booze is in my head

And these unknown hands caress my back

I'm gonna wake in an unfamiliar bed

When the last song is finished

And the band starts to pack it up

Bartender calls, Come on folks let's finish

He knows we've had too much

And outside in the parking lot

We're gonna linger til the last car drives away

And I'm thinking I can love this guy just tonight

Keep my devils all at bay

chorus

In the darkness of this room

We can't see each other's eyes

And sweet blindness makes love to me

Approves of my disguise

In the morning not much to say

Words hang heavy in the air

And I quickly throw on my wrinkled dress

Run my fingers through my tangled messed up hair

chorus
