Between The Bars

Drink up baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do, you won't but you might
The potential you'll be that you'll never see
The promises you'll only make

Drink up with me now and forget all about
The pressure of days do what I say
And I'll make you okay and drive them away
The images stuck in your head

People you've been before that you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

Drink up baby, look at the stars
I'll kiss you again between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught

Drink up one more time and i'll make you mine
Keep you apart deep in my heart
Separate from the rest where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot

Great stuff! I subscribed.

What's the riff at about 1:35 again? It's from a different song, I'm sure.

[ryanlerman]

@M55ikael Mmm. Not that I know of. It sprung forth from my brain.

[JeremiahClayton]

I've always had the opinion NOBODY should cover the Beatles or Elliott Smith. Elliott himself proved me wrong about the Beatles, and you've now proven me wrong about Eliiott Smith. Honestly, the best cover song I've ever heard in my life. Absolutely brilliant mate. I look forward to your future.

[mzaphod]

Keep coming back to this one. It's perfect.

[HarrisonWoodMusic]

...You ARE Ben Folds' bassist. Right?

Either way, you're rockin'.

[SmittenKittenKat]

Yes, but was it really YOU playing all those instruments???

[moneyquickeasy]

I don't like his voice. It's a bit weak, in my opinion.

[paaaaigef]

HOLY SHIT THIS IS AN AMAZING COVER.

[songburgers]

fabulous

[AMKmusc]

Incredible!

[Seaton6017]

This is great. Elliott Smith is absolutely unbeatable. I'm glad I looked you up after seeing you in SF with Ben Folds. Great show. I look forward to seeing more from you.
