Tin Foil Night
I saw you
Cowboy hat
Wrangler jeans
Boots and spurs
Button up shirt
Dark hair
Light eyes
yeah you bet I saw you
I held my breath
Closed my eyes
And tried so hard
To not let you
Get to me
Because I knew
The moment I saw you coming my way
You'd be another
Tin foil knight
On a white horse made of paper
With a sword of plastic
Claiming you care
Claiming you will be there
To catch me when I fall
And then letting me hit the ground
So hard I bleed and break
Yeah I saw you
The horrible mistake
WIth the most perfect face
