[Verse 1]
I don't wanna laugh alone anymore
Knew it was time to put this suit away
When I ripped the knees open eating the pavement
Doris loved her American cars

Part of me will always be in the clouds
In my old suit
In a hotel room, but
I don't wanna laugh alone anymore
I don't wanna laugh alone anymore
I don't wanna laugh alone anymore
I don't wanna laugh alone anymore
