Bulliet Bourbon

[Verse 1]
You walk in
Whole room
Leans your way
Laugh lines
Gold ring
Still you stay
Too close
For strangers
Too far to claim
Your eyes say
“maybe”
Your hands stay tamed

[Pre-Chorus]
We’re talking like
We’re talking business
Splitting hairs
About small decisions
Ice in the glass
Keeps catching the light
We both feel the pull
We both hold it tight (mm)

[Chorus]
Bulliet bourbon
On my tongue
But I bite it back
Let the burn run
Down my throat
I don’t cross that track
You lean in
Say my name
Like a door half-cracked
All this heat
In the space
Where we fade to black
(Bulliet bourbon)
I taste what I can’t have

[Verse 2]
You laugh
And your shoulder
Brushes mine (yeah)
That half-second
Hangs there
Frozen in time
Talk slick
Then we flip
To safer ground
Name drops
Weather talk
Dance around

[Pre-Chorus]
Your phone lights up
You kill the screen
One more sign
We know what this means
If I touch your wrist
We both rewrite life
So I swallow the urge
And I sip my pride

[Chorus]
Bulliet bourbon
On my tongue
But I bite it back
Let the burn run
Down my throat
I don’t cross that track
You lean in
Say my name
Like a door half-cracked
All this heat
In the space
Where we fade to black
(Bulliet bourbon)
I taste what I can’t have

[Bridge]
Maybe in
Some other August
Same bar
Same booth
No promise on us
But tonight
Every second’s a line
So I watch
Every word
Every glance of your eyes (yeah)

[Chorus]
Bulliet bourbon
On my tongue
And I bite it back
Let the burn run
Down my throat
Til the craving cracks
You stand up
Straighten out
Say you should head back
We leave slow
With this spark
We’ll pretend we lack
(Bulliet bourbon)
Poured slow
In the space
Where we hold it back
