Order Me Another One of These Nights

Verse

Candle wax on the checkered cloth

Melting slow while the jukebox coughs up

Some song we knew every word to

Back when June felt like it never would end

You stole a fry off my plate again

Grinning like you always do

Pre-Chorus

And the waiter's asking if we're done

But we just got here, we just begun

So what's the hurry, what's the rush

When the whole sky's turning blush

Chorus

Order me another one of these nights

Where the string lights hum and the timing's right

Where the check comes late and the stars come out

And I'm young and sure without a doubt

Pour it slow, let the summer stay

Order me another one of these nights, don't take it away

Verse

Ice melts down in the lemon glass

Your bike's still leaning against the grass

Two plates, one dessert we're splitting

You say the future's a ways from here

I say let's stay in this atmosphere

Where the moment's still permitting

Pre-Chorus

And the waiter's asking if we're done

But we just got here, we just begun

So what's the hurry, what's the rush

When the whole sky's turning blush

Chorus

Order me another one of these nights

Where the string lights hum and the timing's right

Where the check comes late and the stars come out

And I'm young and sure without a doubt

Pour it slow, let the summer stay

Order me another one of these nights, don't take it away

Bridge

Someday we'll be old and telling this

How the whole town smelled like citrus

How we laughed till the candle drowned

But tonight I'm not looking down that road

I'm just here, where the good light glows

Where forever's this table, this town

Chorus

Order me another one of these nights

Where the string lights hum and the timing's right

Where the check comes late and the stars come out

And I'm young and sure without a doubt

Pour it slow, let the summer stay

Order me another one of these nights

One more of these nights, don't take it away
