Sober Lyrics by Rose Betts

2023

[Verse 1]
I thought that I was doing fine
My head above the waterline
And we shared a taxi home that night, remember
How you ran your fingers through my hair
I fell too far right then and there
I should have been more honest with you then
But

[Refrain]
I was just so fucking thankful
For the simple fact to have you coming back to back to me when others wait in line
And I was just so happy
So damn satisfied to be
The arms you turn to when you need a place to hide

[Chorus]
But you never kiss me when you're sober
You never let me come closer
When all I want is just to hold ya
You never kiss me when you're sober
You never kiss me when you're sober
You never kiss me when you're sober

[Verse 2]
Oh what am I to do with this
Night's filling up with emptiness
The silence at the break of every dawn
And I'm fumbling through all my dreams
I'm changing them to fit my needs
Keep looking for the face closest to yours

[Refrain]
And I know I should be thankful
For the simple fact that I know I have you coming back to me when others wait in line
And I know I should be happy
So damn satisfied to be
The arms you turn to when you need a place to hide


[Chorus]
But you never kiss me when you're sober
You never let me come closer
When all I want is just to hold ya
You never kiss me when you're sober
You never kiss me when you're sober
You never kiss me when you're sober

I know you want me when it's over
But you never kiss me when you're sober
