Elegantly Wasted Lyrics by Karen Jonas

The Restless

2023

[Verse 1]
The city's lifting like an airplane
The sky is never really dark
I'm feeling beautiful and restless
Holding tightly to your arm
We keep a close watch on each other
We keep our wallets out of sight
You spent the last of yours on cigarettes
I spent the last of mine on wine
[Chorus]
I'm feeling elegantly wasted
Like Cinderella in the moonlight
Will you still love me in the morning
Just the way you do tonight?
[Post-Chorus]
Just the way you do tonight
[Verse 2]
I can see your breath around us
Little clouds of vapor dew
I breathe in the air you breathe out
Leaning closer into you
[Chorus]
I'm feeling elegantly wasted
Like Cinderella in the moonlight
Will you still love me in the morning
Just the way you do tonight?
[Bridge]
Will this be beautiful tomorrow
When the light is harsh and strong?
Can November stay forever
When the nights are long?
Will you still love me in the morning?
Oh, the reckless dawn
[Verse 4]
Now I'm dancing on the sidewalk
In a sweater and blue jeans
You're Humphry Bogart in the streetlamp
Paris was meant for you and me
[Chorus]
I'm feeling elegantly wasted
Like Cinderella in the moonlight
Will you still love me in the morning
Just the way you do tonight?
[Outro]
Will you still love me in the morning
Just the way you do tonight?
Just the way you do tonight
