[Verse 1]
You caught me by surprise
Didn't think I'd see you out tonight
I try to catch a buzz just because I need you off my mind
Everywhere that I go
I either see you or your ghost
Even when you're not there
The memory's there at the back of my mind
[Chorus]
But I can't be out tonight
And all of my friends, they ask me why
But they don't know you like I used to
No, they don't know
That not a day goes by
That I don't wish that you were mine
And the licquor's no use
And I know it's just an excuse to call you one last time
But I can't be out tonight
No, I can't see you
No, I can't be out tonight
No, I can't see you
[Verse 2]
And I've moved on but it hurts to see you
Therе's a part of me that wishes we could start ovеr again
But in my head I know you're already gone
[Chorus]
But I can't be out tonight
And all of my friends, they ask me why
But they don't know you like I used to
No, they don't know
That not a day goes by
That I don't wish that you were mine
And the liquor's no use
And I know it's just an excuse to call you one last time
But I can't be out tonight
No, I can't see you
No, I can't be out tonight
No, I can't see you
[Bridge]
They never saw you ridin' in my shotgun seat
Or singin' "Free Fallin'" on repeat and I know
Yeah, I know
They never got those late night "Come over" texts
Or had the feelings of regret that came with losin' you
And you've been seen with someone new
[Chorus]
But I can't be out tonight
And all of my friends, I tell them why
But they don't know you like I used to
No, they don't know
That not a day goes by
That I don't wish that you were mine
And the liquor's no use
And I know it's just an excuse to call you one last time
But I can't be out tonight
No, I can't see you
No, I can't be out tonight
No, I can't see you
No, I can't see you
