Cause Cheap Is How I Feel

Its the kind of night thats so cold when you spit
It freezes before it hits the ground
And when a bum asks for a quarter, you give a dollar
If hes out tonight, he must be truly down
And Im searching all the windows for a last minute present
To prove to you what
I said was real
For something small and frail, and plastic, baby
Cause cheap is how
I feelHalf a moon in the sky tonight is bright enough
To come up with an answer
To the question, why is it that every time
I see youMy love grows a little stronger?
But your memory leaves my stomach churnin
Feelin like a lie about to be revealed
But Ill horde all this to myself
Cause cheap is how
I feelIts not the smell in here that gets to me, its the lights
I hate the shadows that they cast
And the sound of clinking bottles is the one sure thing
Ill always drag with me from my past
I think Ill find a pair of eyes tonight to fall into
And maybe strike a deal
Your body for my soul, fair swap
Cause cheap is how
I feel
