The Sweetest Hangover
The Dinky Toys Lyrics

This morning I woke up in someone else's bed
I found myself in another person's bed after a night of indiscretion

With a smile on my lips
Despite my situation, I still had a hint of joy on my face

And an ache in my head
The aftermath of the drinking and carousing from the previous night was apparent

Clothes was scattered all over the floor
Evidence of what transpired litters the room

The sun came peeping through the bedroom door
The morning's light was beginning to reveal the secrets of the night before

One moment of weakness I blame it one the wine
I attribute my poor decision-making to the influence of alcohol and a lapse in judgement

pure effortless sweetness kept pushing the line
A natural attraction made the transgression feel almost inevitable

Poison or potion what is lust in the end
Was this a harmful mistake or a fleeting moment of passion?

All that I know is that I'd do it again
Despite the consequences, I am not sure I would not repeat my actions

But I had to go home
Despite my desires, my responsibilities and morals forced me to leave

I checked my phone and it had died
I was unable to rely on my phone to distract me from my situation

I let my conscience be my guide
My sense of right and wrong was the compass that led me out of the situation

Unshaven un-showered in yesterdays clothes
I was unkempt and still wearing the clothes from the day before

Rings on my fingers and bells on my toes
I still had my accessories from the night before

You never know what life has in store
The unpredictable nature of life can lead to unexpected situations

The morning after the night before
The consequences of my behavior became clear in the light of day

And I had sunshine in my stride
Despite my situation, I tried to put on a brave face and walk with confidence

Lord knows I took that walk with pride
I tried to act with dignity in the face of a mistake
