[Verse 1]

Frances

She was amazing

She held my hand in times like this

She dances

Under the strobe lights

She called me handsome on nights like this

[Pre-Chorus]

But, at the end of the day

What's my mother gonna say when I come home crying?

At the end of the day

I'm just happy I can say she was mine

[Chorus]

Hey-hey, oh-oh

The dog days, the rides home

The tall cans, the long nights

The small chance we'd be together if I didn't push you outta thе spotlight

I don't know why I still can't get it right

[Verse 2]

Frances

She lovеd the pine trees

Would swing from the branches

On days like this

Dances

Under the moonlight

I'd make advances

When midnight hit

[Pre-Chorus]

But, at the end of the day

What's my mother gonna say when I come home crying?

At the end of the day

I'm just happy I can say she was mine

[Chorus]

Hey-hey (Hey-hey), oh-oh (Oh-oh)

The dog days (The dog days), the rides home (The rides home)

The tall cans (The tall cans), the long nights (The long nights)

The small chance we'd be together if I didn't push you outta the spotlight

I don't know why I still can't get it right

[Bridge]

And every letter in her name

Every smile on her face was a silver lining

What's there really left to say?

I'm just thinking of the days we were fine

[Chorus]

Hey-hey (Hey-hey), oh-oh (Oh-oh)

The dog days (The dog days), the rides home (The rides home)

The tall cans (The tall cans), the long nights (The long nights)

The small chance we'd be together if I didn't push you outta the spotlight

I don't know why I still can't get it right

[Outro]

I don't know why I still can't get it right

(Hmm-mm, hmm, yeah)
