Hennessy Or Beer

about

New Year's Eve at the Springwater.

lyrics

I was too drunk to pursue the matter
But I remember the kisses exchanged
The new year had come and we had all gathered
At the bar where we'd spend most of our days

How many times did your lips meet mine?
I think I recall two or three
Do you find it was something simmering inside
Or just an aspect of the revelry?

Should we talk about this
Or just chalk it all up to the alcohol?
It was only a kiss
Did it really mean anything at all?

"My friends and I, we got the night started
With some shots of Hennessy at my house
By the time we began our walk to the bar, it
Was clear we were all pretty darn soused

And I was happy to see you were as tipsy as me
As the ball on TV started to drop
And when we went beyond what is customary
I couldn't help but wonder what my friends thought"

Well, I wasn't concerned
About anyone else in there that day
And the opinions discerned
From the actions that we displayed

I have this tendency
To make too much of the smallest things
I should wait at least until my head is clear
"Our next embrace"
Should not be based
On Hennessy or beer

Should we talk about this?
"Let's just chalk it all up to the alcohol
It was only a kiss
Since when has that meant anything at all?"
