Bar closes…
…and nobody's ready to go home.
So you end up somewhere else.
This is that.
Bar closed down and nobody made a move
Lights came up but nobody followed through
Somebody said "I've got a place just up the road"
One ridin' on a cooler, one backseat full, and we rolled
Turned off somewhere I couldn't find again
But that wasn't really the point back then
Somebody's porch, end of the night
Chairs that don't match but the company's right
Nobody's counting, nobody's keeping score
This is the part worth staying up for
One chair leaned like it gave up years ago
Still holdin' on like it knows what it knows
Cooler's mostly water with a few floatin' cans
Same one somebody's still checkin' again
One guy halfway through a story nobody's followin' now
Somebody else just starin' out like the dark is talkin' back somehow
One passed out in a chair like he's done this before
Same way he was laid out back at six by the shore
Dog driftin' through like it lives there full-time
Nobody questionin' any of it tonight
Somebody's porch, end of the night
Chairs that don't match but the company's right
Nobody's counting, nobody's keeping score
This is the part worth staying up for
Speaker barely holdin' on to what it used to play
More hum than song somewhere along the way
You were already there when it thinned out to this
Two of us talkin' low like the night might hear what it missed
That's the kind of moment you don't know is the beginning
Not 'til you're somewhere on the other side and grinning
Not every night is worth the morning it becomes
But every now and then the right one comes
After the last car, the last glass, the last goodbye
A porch somewhere, two chairs, and a clear sky
Thank you…
Y'all didn't have to stay this long.
But you did.
We're gonna step off for a minute…
Don't go too far.
Somebody's porch, end of the night
Chairs that don't match but the company's right
Nobody's counting, nobody's keeping score
This is the part worth staying up for
Funny how this part's the one that stays the longest
Out on somebody's porch
Somewhere between almost gone
And not wantin' to leave because
Didn't plan on being the last one standing here
Didn't plan on a lot of things
Alright…
…one more
