DARK GLASSES ©2026 F. Mayes, T. Strickland

I’m waking up and trying to remember. What we said and what we did last night.
It’s barely noon and I’m thinking about you. I’ll make the day alright. Till I can see you tonight.
Wearing Dark Glasses!

I had a job. Lots of money in my pockets. I gave it up to spend more time with you.
Now I have fame as a bar stool profit. Watching my future fade. With every passing day.
Wearing Dark Glasses!

And when those city lights start calling you know soon I will be falling.
Back into your arms again.
The streets are full of happy people. Fake ID’s and barely legal.
I’m all lined up with my friends

It’s closing time. Tables full of empty glasses.
It’s my last chance to impress someone.
I stumble home with nothing more than empty chances.
How can I let you know. You’re the star in my show.
Wearing Dark Glasses!

Wearing Dark Glasses! Wearing Dark Glasses! Wearing Dark Glasses……

I Just Can’t Let You Go!
