Won't somebody take me out tonight?
I want to shine like the streetlights
The colored lamps outside the bars
Outshine the brightest stars

I got a new haircut today
I want the rain to wash my broken heart away
And like any sinner, I'm gonna skip dinner
If you'd only take me out tonight

I've got a hundred stupid things to say
And tons of compliments to give away
And I've got fifty bucks that you can borrow
And I won't be able to remember it tomorrow

This city is a cold and lonely place
I want to look into an unfamiliar face
If you'll come with me, you're my best friend forever
And we can make new memories together

Won't somebody take me out tonight?
I want to shine like the streetlights
The colored lamps outside the bars
Outshine the brightest stars

I got a new haircut today
I want the rain to wash my broken heart away
And like any sinner, I'm gonna skip dinner
If you'd only take me out tonight
Where the music's loud and the people bright
Feels like I'm falling apart
But somewhere in this town there's a bar
Where I can drown my broken heart

If you'd only take me out tonight
