lyrics

I don't wanna walk into this with my eyes closed
But her smile has me feeling kinda wistful
Like I lost too many years to care

I love the way she dresses like the world is falling backwards
And the only way to live is to be reckless
Like she's compelling you to smile if you dare

Money on the outside
Hardy on the in
When she kissed me I cried
And she answered with a grin
Middle of the dancefloor
Smiling through the tears
She's the one I adore
Now she's the only thing I fear

I found my self esteem round the back of my friend's house
Drinking tinnies till the neighbours call the boys round
Walking home as the sun appears

Windows splitting up the party into boxes
Made a front row for the scene of my first kiss
Gave a bow as the night broke out into cheers

Money on the outside
Hardy on the in
When she kissed me I cried
And she answered with a grin
Middle of the dancefloor
Smiling through the tears
She's the one I adore
Now she's the only thing I fear
Tripping over my words
Never quite sure
How to be the type of
Person she'll endure
I hope she treats me softly
And when she lets me down
I hope that she'll think fondly of the creature that she found

Heart attacks from holding hands
And waiting for her texts to land
Playing pool as best I can
With rolled up sleeves and farmer's tans
The longest summer I ever had
Thin white sheets and broken fans
Seeing each night through the lens
Of being drunk in love
If I never had a happy life
At least I can say that I tried
To throw myself into the kinds
Of situations that inspire
The songs I sing at 25
That capture hope with all my might
I gave them to the open sky
And love without ever asking why
Oh why

Money on the outside
Hardy on the in
When she kissed me I cried
And she answered with a grin
Middle of the dancefloor
Smiling through the tears
She's the one I adore
Now she's the only thing I fear
Tripping over my words
Never quite sure
How to be the type of
Person she'll endure
I hope she treats me softly
And when she lets me down
I hope that she'll think fondly of the creature that she found
