INTRO
she took the red eye from the west coast found her rental car
dropped her luggage in her hotel room headed right straight for the bar
she found a quiet table and took some time to think
that's the way i found her when she offered me the drink
she said i chase a silly dream even though i say i don't
but i've come to realize i can't have everything i want
and today this foolish notion is coming to an end
but tonight i could really use a friend
CHORUS
my head is really buzzing and i hope it's gonna last
cause i'm feeling kind of lonely and the night is coming fast
i don't want to offend you and i don't want to assume
but i've got this really good tequila in my room
i've got this really good tequila in my room
she said this trip is hard to handle so i need the whiskey strong
i'm here to see the wedding that i've dreaded for so long
cause the bride is my best friend but i've always loved the groom
i've got this really good tequila in my room
REPEAT CHORUS
i listened to her story and we drank a little more
i thought i'd leave without her but i walked her to her door
how many other men heard the story that i heard
how many evenings got started with those words
REPEAT CHORUS
