Table for Two – words and music by Edward Hartline

The dusty silhouette
Of the morning to the west
But maybe I'm not ready to go

The fields of broken lights
Send these shivers down my spine
Another drink will send me out the door

Instead of counting shooting stars
I'm just sitting at the bar
Wasting all my wishes by the round

Another day is gone
And I'll only stay as strong
As long as my feet don't scratch the ground

That's when I saw her

I said, I couldn't help but notice
You ain't got no one here with you
I don't mean to intrude
But the table's meant for two

And I can tell there's no summer
Left inside your frozen eyes
And they’re locked to the color
Of the black fireflies

Out the window there's a man for you
But outside is all you see
Baby, take a look around
'Cause right now it's you and me

And I'm sure I don't deserve you
But I'd kill for a girl like you

She said, I only just got over
Another cold shoulder
That came round the bend like a train

She said, you don't know the meaning
Of love until you feel it
Running through your veins

I've been trying to count heads
Instead of caring what he said
But right now I'm only waging wars

But a battle with myself
It’s like a blow below the belt
‘Til just now, well, I was only facing scars

Until I saw you

I said, I don't even care
If you don't know my name
Your wedding dress is calling
And I'm falling for you, babe

So we can get up and just dance
Inside the light of our romance
We'll sing the night away
As if it were all just by chance

But it's fate now, my dear
It's really hard to take
I thought I drank out the rest for me
But I did it by mistake

So now, come on and show me
What a broken heart looks like
I think I know the feeling
But I don't think it's healing quite right

I know I don't deserve you
But I'm never gonna hurt you

I said, I know I don't deserve you
But this table here holds two
