Pick up the phone I know you're there it's almost closing time
& we can toss down one more shot before last call are you ok?
I swear to God I gotta get out of this house I miss the days when I'd just
not come home at all...

Now don't you cry, it'll give you lines
around your eyes
you gotta try not to live so much of
life alone
& if I see you getting crazy by the bottom
of the bottle I'll
take you home, take you home, take you home

Remember when we used to stumble down the boulevard
from bar to bar until we couldn't stagger straight
we felt like we would live forever,living life was not so hard
we felt nothing much at all but it felt great

Now don't you cry, it'll give you lines
around your eyes
you gotta try not to live so much of
life alone
& if I see you getting crazy by the bottom
of the bottle I'll
take you home, take you home, take you home

I gotta tell you, it gets better every day you stay alive
& I'm amazed every day that the sun decides to rise
every minute, every hour, is another chance to change
Life is beautiful & terrible & strange

Now don't you cry, it'll give you lines
around your eyes
you gotta try not to live so much of
life alone
& if I see you getting crazy by the bottom
of the bottle
Take me home, Take me home, Take me home

    These lyrics are not quite correct (at least to the version I have) -at the end of my cut she sings the chorus again changing it to herself "If you see me getting crazy... take me home..." My version also changes the last verse to "if things get better every day you stay alive, then I'm amazed every day that the sun decides to rise".

    Anyway, regardless of how she sings it, it's about how at the end of the day, there's always that one person who you can come back to, share a drink with, tell your worries to, and wake up next to, because they truly care about you -and sometimes you're that person to someone else.
