Lyrics Jimmy Eat World – Open Bar Reception

This should be a night to be remembered.
We’ll remember you can be sure of that.
On and on we walk out to the crowd
I’m expected you’re expected.

I should feel we’re going somewhere better but I don’t
why should we be anything but strangers
in clothes that we don’t own

I just realized that this has been the first time
we’ve seen each others vulneribilty.
Somewhere between hello and goodbye
there is something serious that we always missed

I should feel we’re going somewhere better but I don’t
why should we be anything but strangers
in clothes that we don’t own

Drifting in and out a priest is talking
something ’bout a body from a bone.
A thinking man said I could never be
half as close to you as you are to me

I should feel it all leads somewhere better but I don’t
why should we be anything but strangers
in clothes that we don’t own
I should feel we’ll get to someplace better but I don’t
why should we be anything but strangers
in clothes that we don’t own
