You booked the
night train for a reason
so you could sit
there in this hurt
Bustling crowds or
silent sleepers you're
not sure which is worse
Because I dropped
your hand while
dancing left you out
there standing
Crestfallen on
the landing
champagne problems
Your Mom's ring in
your pocket my picture
in your wallet
Your heart was glass
I dropped it
champagne problems
You told your family
for a reason you
couldn't keep it in
Your sister splashed
out on the bottle now
no one's celebrating
Dom Perignon you
brought it no crowd
of friends applauded
Your hometown
skeptics called it
champagne problems
You had a speech
you're speechless
love slipped beyond
your reaches
And I couldn't
give a reason
champagne problems
Your Midas touch on
the Chevy door
November flush and
your flannel cure
This dorm was once
a madhouse I made a
joke well it's made
for me how
Evergreen our group
of friends don't think
we'll say that word again
And soon they'll have
the nerve to deck
the halls that we
once walked through
One for the money
two for the show I never
was ready so I watch you
go sometimes you just
don't know the answer
Til someone's on their
knees and asks you she
would've made such a
lovely bride what a shame
she's f**ked in the
head they said
But you'll find the
real thing instead she'll
patch up your
tapestry that I shred
And hold your hand
while dancing
never leave
you standing
Crestfallen on the
landing with
champagne problems
Your Mom's ring
in your pocket
her picture
in your wallet
You won't
remember all my
champagne problems
You won't
remember all my
champagne problems
