So open promise fade,
And the sun forgets to rise
I'm lonely and I'm thirsty
But it's better I stay dry
No more than two drinks away from pain
Stare into the glass
And wait for the time to pass
And I thank you for the offer
But you know I must decline
No more than two drinks away
From crying
There used to be a time
When I could hold my head up high
My life stretched out before me
And rivers flowed with wine
I had my love beside me
And everything was fine
Now the ride is over
It's hard to say goodbye
So open promise fades
And midnight turns to day
And I find you for the "¦
But I cannot tell a lie
Never more than 2 drinks away
From crying.
