AND IT'S STRANGE TO ORDER RUM AND COKES FOR ONE NOT TWO

I'VE NEVER BEEN ONE TO LIKE A PARTY
EXCEPT THE PRIVATE ONES WITH YOU
SO WHAT AM I DOIN' HERE ALL ALONE
MISSIN' YOU AND GETTIN' STONED

     IT'S A REALLY NICE NIGHT FOR DANCIN'
     BUT I DON'T FEEL LIKE DANCIN'
     I SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME AND WATCHED T.V.  INSTEAD OF COMIN' HERE
     OH IT'S A REALLY NICE NIGHT FOR LAUGHIN'  BUT I JUST THINK OF YOU
     AND IT'S STRANGE TO ORDER RUM AND COKES FOR ONE NOT TWO

YOU PACKED YOUR BAGS A MONTH AGO
L.A. YOUR DESTINATION
AND THE NOTE THAT YOU LEFT  YOU DIDN'T BOTHER TO SIGN
MAYBE YOU SENSED A HEART ON THE LINE

     IT'S A REALLY NICE NIGHT FOR DANCIN'
     BUT I DON'T FEEL LIKE DANCIN'
     I SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME AND WATCHED T.V.  INSTEAD OF COMIN' HERE
     OH IT'S A REALLY NICE NIGHT FOR LAUGHIN'
     BUT I JUST THINK OF YOU
     AND IT'S STRANGE TO ORDER RUM AND COKES FOR ONE NOT TWO
     
SO YOU RAN OFF WITH MY EX - BEST FRIEND
IT'S FUNNY HOW YOUR NOTE NEVER MENTIONED IT
AND HERE I'M OUT AND LOOKIN'  AROUND
FULL SAILS TO THE WIND  ON A SHIP RUN AGROUND

     STILL IT'S A REALLY NICE NIGHT FOR DANCIN'
     BUT I DON'T FEEL LIKE DANCIN'
     I SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME AND WATCHED T.V. INSTEAD OF COMIN' HERE
     OH IT'S A REALLY NICE NIGHT FOR LAUGHIN'
     BUT I JUST THINK OF YOU
     AND IT'S STRANGE TO ORDER RUM AND COKES FOR ONE NOT TWO
