Generate meaning
1
I met the drinker for a drink
2
Back when I was drinking everything but the kitchen sink
3
He said to meet him in the bar inside the Blackstone
4
Which was famous for leaving the lights on
5
I don't know why he picked that place
6
It seems strange having other drinkers looking at your face
7
Now as you know some drinkers drink alone
8
They don't want anyone else around
9
But like a trellis needs some ivy
10
Like a spotlight needs a body
11
This drinker needed company
12
He needed me
13
We sat together and we drank
14
He said "the night is always younger than you think"
15
He didn't have much on his mind
16
He said "it's nice to have someone around when you unwind"
17
Well I said "anytime" and he said "thanks"
18
Then we sat in silence and we drank
19
I can't recall the taxi home
20
Whether I was awake or alone
21
I felt the bed swallow my fall
22
Then I heard is voice pouring down the hall
23
And out into the streets and he was gone
24
And I was back where I started from
25
I got on my hands and on my knees
26
And I asked the floor for release
27
I was so heavy it felt like I was being squeezed
28
Through the cracks in the wood into the black underneath
29
So I closed my eyes and I was in the skies
30
I closed my eyes and I was flying
31
The taste of the air took me by surprise
32
It was like alcohol and cotton
33
For awhile I just flew around
34
And that whole ugly city was on the ground
35
Well it sure looked pretty on the ground
36
I flowed beneath me then
37
It was beneath
38
The night is beautiful (I am forgiven)
39
And my life is sweet
