Drinking With You

We work late and I pretend that I don't notice when you're next to me

But I do

I might be mistaken, but I sometimes get the feeling that you notice too

And I know this place that's near here

Quiet, dark and small

When we're finished here I think that I may want a beer, how about you?

It'd be nice to go out drinking with you

You would think that we've danced around each other long enough to know

Where to stand

And my heart stops in a panic when I think how it would feel to finally hold your hand

So we wait for this to happen

Or make it happen now

Either way I think that we should start off with a drink, maybe two

It'd be nice to go out drinking with you

No big deal, we can play it nice and cool and keep the pressure off

Invite our friends

And we'll have a few too many, we'll discreetly share a cab home when the evening ends

When we reach that awkward moment

Standing at your door

We won't even know cause we'll just smile and let it go and sail on through

It'd be nice to go out drinking with you
