Then You Do

Gon' stay in, no need to see some cover charge dive tonight Gonna listen to a record spin Gonna wake up feelin' right Then the telephone rings and it's on with some jeans A couple friends for a drink or two Said you weren't going out tonight And then you do You show up late, it's already loud Dart boards and dollar beer Laugh at some jokes and step through the crowd And she's shinin' like a souvenir The perfect shade of hazel eyes Out of your league, it's true Never think you'll get her to dance and then you do You hold out, you hang on You rush in, get it all wrong Then you break up and go back to Who you were when lonely's all you knew You get numbers, you get names Get banged up from all love's games Swear you're done falling for someone new You think you won't, then you do You wait a few nights before you call You're playin' your cards close The "hello" turns into a laugh Six months, the next thing you know It's whiskeys with her brother Making space in a one bedroom Never thought you'd find forever, and then you do You hold out, you hang on You rush in, get it all wrong Then you break up and go back to Who you were when lonely's all you knew You get numbers, you get names Get banged up from all love's games Swear you're done falling for someone new You think you won't, then you do Then straight out of the blue When you least expect her to She says "Goodbye" and rips your world in two You hold out, you hang on You rush in, get it all wrong Then you break up and go back to Who you were when lonely's all you knew You get numbers, you get names Get banged up from all love's games Swear you're done falling for someone new You think you won't but then you do, mmm Oh, then you do Mmm --- Then You Do - Brett Eldredge
