"Longshot" lyrics - CATFISH AND THE BOTTLEMEN

Go ahead and tell me you got all you want
Fiver says you're wrong
And I suppose you've come down to help me
Move things along

[Pre-Chorus:]
And we lapped it up and we're wise enough to know
How it goes, forgive me, honey
But we're wise enough to know
How it goes, forgive me, honey
'Cause we know this feeling all a little too well

[Chorus:]
Listen, the distance between us could've took a while
Once we closed that difference, you'd turn up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid off

So yeah, go ahead and tell me something real
Come on, how'd you feel?
And I suppose you've come down to help me
Add scenes to the reel, to the reel

[Pre-Chorus:]
While we lapped it up and we're wise enough, who knows?
How it goes, forgive me, honey
But we're wise enough to know
How it goes, forgive me, honey
'Cause we know this feeling all a little too well

[Chorus:]
Listen, the distance between us could've took a while
Once we closed that difference, you'd turn up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid off

[Bridge:]
And it's by the by
If it makes those nights fly
We're side by side again
And now, we're all careless and love drunk
You know exactly how it goes
When you're giving us all kind of reason
Thought I had to go and follow the heart I believe in
'Cause one of us must know
When you're giving us all kind of reason
Thought I had to go and follow the heart I believe in
'Cause in the past it's done me good
So good, so good, so good

[Chorus:]
Listen, the distance between us could've took a while
Once we closed that difference, you'd turn up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid off
Listen, the distance between us could've took a while
Once we closed that difference, you'd turn up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid off
