Last Night Of The World

Lyrics

I'm sipping Flor De Caña and lime juice, it's three a.m.
 
 Blow a fruit fly off the rim of my glass
 
 The radio's playing Superchunk and the Friends of Dean Martinez
 ♪
 Midnight it was bike tires whacking the pot holes
 
 Milling humans' shivering energy glow
 Fusing the space between them with bar-throb bass and laughter
 ♪
 If this were the last night of the world
 What would I do?
 What would I do that was different
 Unless it was champagne with you?
 ♪
 I learned as a child not to trust in my body
 I've carried that burden through my life
 But there's a day when we all have to be pried loose
 ♪
 If this were the last night of the world
 What would I do?
 What would I do that was different
 Unless it was champagne with you?
 ♪
 I've seen the flame of hope among the hopeless
 And that was truly the biggest heartbreak of all
 That was the straw that broke me open
 ♪
 If this were the last night of the world
 What would I do?
 What would I do that was different
 Unless it was champagne with you?
