From the recording Last call for love
Lyrics
[Intro]
Well gather round, folks, it's the last round of drinks,
So take off your boots and join me—I know what you think.
There's a jukebox playin’ and the neon lights glow,
Pour another round, ’cause it's time for the show.
[Verse 1]
I’ve worn my heart on my sleeve, and boy, it’s been rough,
Pour a whiskey real strong, it’s the tonic I love.
This honky tonk’s got stories, tales older than time,
Where heartaches and laughter melt into the rhyme.
[Chorus]
So here’s to the lovers who chase through the night,
The laughs and the heartaches, the hopes that take flight.
Raise your glass high; let’s toast to the moon,
Tonight’s the last call for love, let’s go out with a tune.
[Verse 2]
The bartender’s smilin’ as he fills up my glass,
With stories of love lost, but the memories last.
I see couples out dancing, beneath the starlit skies,
In a world filled with heartache, they still find the highs.
[Pre-Chorus]
Now don’t you be shy, step out on that floor,
The magic is fleeting, but the laughter’s for sure.
With every guitar strum and the beat of the drum,
We're living for love, oh, the night’s just begun!
[Chorus]
So here’s to the lovers who chase through the night,
The laughs and the heartaches, the hopes that take flight.
Raise your glass high; let’s toast to the moon,
Tonight’s the last call for love, let’s go out with a tune.
[Bridge]
Time’s slippin’ away and the last song plays loud,
We’re binding old wounds with this honky tonk crowd.
So take me along on this wild, winding ride,
Where every tune whispers ‘let love be our guide.’
[Verse 3]
Underneath the strobe lights, we’re lost in the night,
With laughter and tears, we’ll hold on real tight.
Each heartbeat's a promise, each footstep's a start,
Love’s a dance we keep doing, it’s a song from the heart.
[Chorus]
So here’s to the lovers who chase through the night,
The laughs and the heartaches, the hopes that take flight.
Raise your glass high; let’s toast to the moon,
Tonight’s the last call for love, let’s go out with a tune.
[Verse 4]
As the clock strikes twelve, I see stars in your eyes,
We’re all in this together, under wide-open skies.
So don’t ever forget, as this night drags on,
With every last call, we’re where we belong.
[Outro]
So here’s to the moments that make our hearts feel,
Lift your glass for the nights that we treasure—so real.
Tonight’s our last call for love, don’t let it pass by,
Underneath this old neon, your heart and mine fly.
