Doodles

Written by Rose Betts

LYRICS

CHORUS

So it's one for the night when I broke his heart
One for the joke that I took too far
And it's one for the dent in the rental car
The doodles I'd undo


VERSE 1

I've got doodles I'd undo
And doodles I'd unmake
When the road is passing you
Oh there's nothing I won't break
I've got lies I'd swap for truths
And truths that I'd unsay
So when the barman's passing through
There is no knowing what I'll take


CHORUS


VERSE 2

I've got doodles I've undone
And doodles I've undid
I've got days I can't outrun
And days I can't unlive
I've flown too close to the sun
And too close to the wind
So tell the barman, leave it open
I'm gonna need a couple more drinks


CHORUS


VERSE 3

So it's one for the chaos
And one for the craic
One for the kiss
I should not have done that
And it's one for the lover
That I'll never get back
The doodles I'd undo 


CHORUS x 2
