From a Lover's Point of View Lyrics

You don't have to drink tonight why don't we just get some sleep
'Cause I'm tired of cryin' in driveways as you slur the words you speak
I know growin' up has been an evil thing to you
Makes you awful hard to love from a lover's point of view

And I'll never understand how you wound up in the shape you're in
But I'll always be the fool that fell for you in your burnin' skin
I'll be prayin' for you and pinin' for you and hopin' you get some rest
But from a lover's point of view it's all been hard to watch at best

'Cause from where I'm standin' you got a long climb ahead
I'll be there to wipe the vomit when you cannot lift your head
Because a lover doesn't leave when times like these get dark
I'll be there to watch the sunrise when we reclaim your heart

And I'll pick you up downtown when you're grinnin' with a busted lip
'Cause you're not known for backin' down and those boys are known for talkin' shit
But now's about the time, look, you really got to decide
Are you gonna be a good man to me or die the way you're mother died

'Cause from where I'm standin' you got a long climb ahead
I'll be there to wipe the vomit when you cannot lift your head
'Cause a lover doesn't leave when times like these get dark
I'll be there to watch the sunrise when we reclaim your heart

You don't have to drink tonight why don't we just get some sleep
'Cause I'm tired of cryin' in driveways as you slur the words you speak
