500 Nights - Courtney Marie Andrews

Tonight on Asher’s porch

I swear I heard you laugh like you did when we first met

I tried to catch your eye

But you’re too damn stubborn now let me in

Five hundred nights spent by your side

And I could’ve spent five hundred more

But this lonely mind, it needs some time

These lonely dreams need somethin' to work t’wards

It’s easy to talk about the past

Wishin' that time was in a frame upon your bookshelf

I saw you crying in Beau’s lap

Talkin' about life as if it was somethin' you could pass or fail

But it doesn’t have to be a test

All the things we did, all the things we said, there’s no use dwellin' in

No, it’s the whiskey on your breath

That’s keeping you in a state of remembrance

Five hundred nights spent by your side

And I could’ve spent five hundred more

We’re livin' in restless times, no one wants to be tied

To the selflessness of every hour

Five hundred nights

Five hundred nights
