New Dress

Our brows will raise when we walk in a room
 But see, I'm scared and trying not to look at you
 And I say, castles burn then get rebuilt
 We both did our best to deal with guilt
 And work with what we have to just make due
 Servers won't know if my wine's free tonight
 But I bet they'll try and guess your name
 They'll wonder how a perfect couple
 Went and let a good thing crumble
 But they know better than to have me explain
 'Cause you're in a new dress, and I hate this
 All the feelings too contained
 Oh, I ain't ready, it gets heavy
 But now I'm parking anyway
 'Cause when we walk across that floor, I'll leave my heart back at the door
 And smell the smoke of an old flame that still remains
 I'll see your face when I get poured a glass
 I sit and wonder why good things never last
 I'm doing you a disservice
 And it's clear you don't deserve this
 So I'm a fool to think I could escape my past
 'Cause you're in a new dress, and I hate this
 All the feelings too contained
 Oh, I ain't ready, it gets heavy
 But now I'm parking anyway
 'Cause when we walk across that floor, I'll leave my heart back at the door
 And smell the smoke of an old flame that still remains
 'Cause it's too late now, that your heels have touched the ground
 And your legs carry your heart across the floor
 Now the sky turns black and my confidence falls flat
 'Cause they all know she'd never wear a dress like that
 You're in a new dress, and I hate this
 All the feelings too contained
 Oh, I ain't ready, but I'm steady
 Moving back to my domain
 Oh, I'm a king without a kingdom
 Just a ship that's slowly sinking
 I smell the smoke of an old flame that still remains
 'Cause you're in a new dress, and I hate this
 All the feelings too contained
 Oh, I ain't ready, but I'm steady
 Moving back to my domain
 Oh, I'm a king without a kingdom
 Just a ship that's slowly sinking
 I smell the smoke of an old flame that still remains
 As I smell the smoke of an old flame that still remains
 Oh, I smell the smoke of an old flame that still remains
