Lyrics:
Some of us like to chase the highs
And then the lows come as a surprise
A downer just to ease the ride
An upper to help us take flight

I’m wasting time with the state I’m in
Telling myself I’m done once again
It sure would be nice to have a friend
But the whiskey will do, I prefer it to skin 

But I held your hand back in May 
And I’m sorry that I’ve turned out this way
But through my bloodshot eyes, I see your face
Each morning you leave, but I wish you’d just stay

But I can wait

I can wait for those Saturday nights
Like we’re playing cards
And maybe we’ll find out just who we are
And on those nights, happiness ain’t far
And your goosebumps rise as I kiss your scars

Oh, on Saturday nights
Until then I’ll just keep moving along
Saturday nights, oh, Saturday nights 
Moving on, yeah, moving on

Well I’ve heard it’s harder each time around
I know some people that it’s put in the ground
And I know I’m not the only one in this crowd
Who can’t even say it, let alone scream it out loud 

But when there’s a will, there’s a way
At least that’s what the experienced say
And I don’t know if I’m feeling wise today
But I like my chances if you’d just stay

But I can wait 

I can wait for those Saturday nights 
Like we’re playing cards 
Maybe we’ll find out just who we are
And on those nights, happiness ain’t far
And your goosebumps rise as I kiss your scars

Oh, on Saturday nights
Until then I’ll just keep moving along
Saturday nights, oh, Saturday nights 
Moving on, yeah, moving on
