Apéritif

Campari in your glass when you look at me

I don't know what it is, I don't know who you're with

The ruby red flies from the crystal cup

And you're already gone when I go to pick it up

Everybody tries to tell me that you will stay

Then why'd you feel the need to look the other way?

Whoa, is me, I'm nothing but your apéritif

Getting you ready, for why you came here

Lucky for me, you can't forget your apéritif

Or you'll be stumbling out and woozy

You swig Côtes du Rhône as your meal arrives

And you meet his eyes, maybe 18 times

I'd pull you aside, but I'm petrified

That you'd lie and deny, so I run and I hide

Everybody tries to tell me that you will stay

Then why the blank stare when I ask if we're okay?

Whoa, is me, I'm nothing but your apéritif

Getting you ready, for why you came here

Lucky for me, you can't forget your apéritif

Or you'll be stumbling out and woozy

That don't track and something is all out of whack

That don't track and here comes the panic attack

That don't track and something is all out of whack

I won't fight, I'll tell you that it's alright

Whoa, is me, I'm nothing but your apéritif

Getting you ready, for why you came here

Lucky for me, you can't forget your apéritif

'Cause, I'll be part of your story
