lyrics

"The Rules to This"
(Broderick)


If you would speak to me quietly and peacefully, it’s a bottle of wine for your time, it’s a bottle of wine/ let the evening breathe sordid tales of secrecy, it’s a bottle of wine, for your time, it’s a bottle of wine

Tell me secrets no one knows, so I don’t feel so comatose/ take a shot in the dark to jump start your heart you take a shot of the dark/ I guess for us to be good lovers we gotta be colorblind to our true colors/ you take a shot of the dark to jumpstart your heart you take a shot in the dark

There’s a girl I knew before, she just walked through the door/ and she got a new man and she holdin his hand, yea she got a new man/ I could smile and she could wave, an awkward exchange could be saved/ between me and her man, yea she holdin his hand, yea she got a new man

Now I don’t know the rules to this, it all just seems so ludicrous/ the sounds of saxophones and clarinets/ I could’ve played it cool and not made a fool, I should’ve played it cool and kept playin’ pool/ I could’ve walked outside and had a cigarette/ I could’ve walked outside and had a cigarette

Another drink, this ones on me, one for c’est la vie and good company/ it’s a bottle of wine for your time, it’s a bottle of wine/ just enjoy the booze laugh and pretend I said something cool/ it’s a bottle of wine for your time, it’s a bottle of wine

Maybe we could fight a war, wake up in a gutter and defy the law/ take a shot in the dark to jump start ya heart we take a shot of the dark/ remember to breathe and the better you’ll be never believe that forever is free/ take a shot of the dark to jump start ya heart it’s a shot in the dark

You told her that you want it all but honestys your biggest flaw/ and now she got a new man and she holdin in his hand yea shot got a new man/ the day that you let her know that’s the day she’ll let you go/ yea she got a new man and she holdin his hand yea she got a new man

Repeat Chorus
