Francis, she was amazing, she held my hand in times like this
She dances under the strobe lights, she'd call me handsome on nights like this
But at the end of the day, what's my mother gonna say when I come home crying?
At the end of the day, I'm just happy I can say she was mine
Hey, hey, oh, the dark days, the rides home, the talkings
The long nights, the small chance we'd be together if I didn't push you out of the spotlight
I don't know what, but I still can't get it right
Francis, she loved the pine trees, the swing from the branches on days like this
She dances under the moonlight, I'd make advances when midnight hit
But at the end of the day, what's my mother gonna say when I come home crying?
At the end of the day, I'm just happy I can say she was mine
Hey, hey, oh, the dark days, the rides home, the talkings



The long nights, the small chance we'd be together if I didn't push you out of the spotlight
I don't know what, but I still can't get it right
And every letter in her name, every smile on her face was a silver lining
What's there really left to say? I'm just thinking of the days we were fine
Hey, hey, oh, the dark days, the rides home, the rides home
The talkings, the long nights, the small chance we'd be together if I didn't push you out of the spotlight
I don't know what, but I still can't get it right
I don't know what, but I still can't get it right
I don't know what, but I still can't get it right
