Rachel's Big Night Out

Sitting down at a bar on a Tuesday

Staring down the wine that fills my cup

Overwhelmed by the shouts and the hearsay

And that's when I looked up

Out of the corner of my eye stood a golden moon

A patchwork star of the finest cloth 

Man she's coming to sit by me yes she is 

​

I looked over, I couldn't help staring 

Her eyes held a warmth that I used to know

Her sister told me bout the calm and the caring 

I couldn't stop myself from wanting to show 

The rain, the sun, the trees, the flowers that she bloomed inside my mind

Now I can't stop thinking of the smile that permeates my time 

​

It's Rachel's Big Night Out (yeah)

She's not slowing down (not slowing down for anyone)

Soon she'll be out of town 

And she said "Baby for tonight, I guess I'll hang around.. Just for you

​

What can I do to convince her to stay here?

What can I say to be someone that she won't forget ?

Im drawing blanks cause her perfume was top tier

I hadn't even told her my name yet

With grace she scrunched her face at every single one of my lines

For a moment I thought that she'd be mine 

Oh you know that it's 

​

It's Rachel's Big Night Out (oh, yes it is oh yeah)

She's not slowing down (oh she's not slowing down for anyone)

Soon she'll be out of town 

And she said "Baby for tonight, I guess I'll hang around.. Just for you

​

(Sick ass guitar solo that no-one asked for)

​

I know she has to leave for school in the fall

No I couldn't stop her even if I tried

I wonder if she thinks about me at all?

While she's hanging with that other guy 

Wonder where we would have ended up?

With a house? With a Baby? Maybe a divorce? 

But it wouldn't matter, Cause I'd still love her of course it's

​

It's Rachel's Big Night Out (Ohh Rachel's Big Night Out)

She's not slowing down (Yeah you better move on out her way!)

Soon she'll be out of town (She's gonna leave)

And she said "Baby for tonight, I guess I'll hang around.. Just for you yeah

​

It's Rachel's Big Night Out (Aye it's Rachel's Big Night Out)

She's not slowing down (Oh she's not slowing down)

Soon she'll be out of town (She's gonna leave)

And she said "Baby for tonight, I guess I'll.. I guess I'll.. I guess I'll hang around..
