Woke Up Older (Acoustic)

Lyrics

You've got lunch with your sister tomorrow
 So we can't be up late
 You don't mind if I sleep in
 But then I've gotta pack my things
 So I stacked a Bukowski novel on a Blacklisted LP
 And this time what it looked like was just what it proved to be
 You said you needed a stiff drink to take your mind off things
 Hey Jess, I woke up older
 Carrying two years in the bags under my eyes
 Hey Jess, I watched you wake up and get dressed
 You left the room receded like my hairline
 I've been avoiding Rittenhouse like the plague
 Because I just can't handle seeing you today
 You made this house into a home
 Now, I'm a stranger on my street
 And as I turned to leave
 I caught myself in the mirror to see I aged a year this week
 I left a note up on your bed that said
 Hey, thanks again for everything you did
 Hey Jess, I woke up older
 Carrying two years in the bags under my eyes
 Hey Jess, I watched you wake up and get dressed
 You left the room receded like my hairline
 When John introduced Woke Up New in St. Augustine
 I knew I wasn't alone
 When I woke up here without you
 There was nothing to do but pack up and go home
 Hey Jess, I woke up older
 Carrying two years in the bags under my eyes
 Hey Jess, I woke up older
 Carrying two years in the bags under my eyes
 Hey Jess, I watched you wake up and get dressed
 You left the room receded like my hairline
