about

A true story about a real party

lyrics

YOU’LL KNOW THE WORDS

The sun is sinking, and the light goes dim and
I’ll be much closer soon to him to him to him
So, I buy a bottle. A cheap one I confess
And I hope that I can still recall my best friend’s address

I’m hoping that this song will make a difference
I’m hoping one day you’ll know the words by heart

The party’s jumping and
The music’s loud
I wonder if you’ll notice me
in this beautiful crowd

Well we talk for hours
Until you finally confess
That someone else has caught your eye
She lives at this address

I’m hoping that this song will make a difference
I hope that one day you’ll know the words by heart

The party’s over and
As I walk home
I swear the moon shines brighter than
I have ever known

And though you’re not with me
Somehow I feel complete
And I thank the Lord that he allowed
The two of us to meet

And after all this song will make a difference
I know in time it’s gonna heal my heart
