Ramona
Lady Denim Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ramona
Tonight, you're my favorite girl
Watching you dance like there's no one else in the world

And crowded parties
Were never really your thing
But you drink bagged wine and slur every word you sing
You ask me softly
Can we get out of here?
I reach for what's ours and tell Sly to hold my beer

And as I grab the door
Is this where our story begins?
Opening chapters matched with untold ends

Cause you make me feel like I'm finally alive
I'm drunk on you
Unlike me to do
As for tomorrow, I hope it don't come soon

She sparks her spirits
Beginning tethered hits
She knows what they do, but it's all for the thrill of it

And oh, Ramona
I look at your starry eyed
You and those untold secrets throughout the night

As I watch you sail
With your hands out the window
Does the wind blow farther than Colorado?

Cause you'll dream in color
Of days when you grow old
Just say the word, I'm sold

Cause you make me feel like I'm finally alive
I'm high on you
Unlike me to do
As for tomorrow, I hope it don't come soon
But I've been thinking lately
With my candied eyes
Why you took me on this grand adventure
When you could have any guy

But now the sun is rising
May story never end




But as I make up the words to tell you
You say you're such a good friend
