Tonight on Asher's porch I swear I heard you laugh like you did when we first met I tried to catch your eye But you're too damn stubborn now to let me in 500 nights spent by your side and I could've spent 500 more But this lonely mind, it needs some time These lonely dreams need something to work towards ♪ ♪ It's easy to talk about the past Wishing that time was in a frame upon your bookshelf I saw you crying in Beau's lap Talking about life as if it was something you could pass or fail But it doesn't have to be a test All the things we did, all the things we said, there's no use dwelling in No, it's the whiskey on your breath that's keeping you in a state of remembrance 500 nights spent by your side and I could've spent 500 more We're living in restless times No one wants to be tied to the selflessness of every hour 500 nights ♪ 500 nights
