| [00:30.41] | As hope and promise fade |
| [00:39.53] | And the sun forgets to rise |
| [00:50.03] | I’m lonely and I’m thirsty |
| [00:55.10] | But it’s better I stay dry |
| [00:59.79] | No more than two drinks away |
| [01:06.04] | From crying |
| [01:14.96] | Stare into the glass |
| [01:22.54] | And wait for the time to pass |
| [01:32.54] | And thank you for the offer |
| [01:37.29] | But you know I must decline |
| [01:41.54] | Never more than two drinks awawy |
| [01:48.29] | From crying |
| [01:54.67] | There used to be a time |
| [01:57.77] | When I could hold my head up high |
| [02:04.65] | My life layed out before me |
| [02:10.09] | Rivers flow with wine |
| [02:15.27] | I had my love beside me |
| [02:20.02] | And everything was fine |
| [02:24.84] | But now the ride is over |
| [02:32.66] | It’s hard to say goodbye |
| [02:39.53] | |
| [02:49.20] | As hope and promise fade |
| [02:49.88] | And midnight turns to day |
| [02:58.32] | Well I’m tired and I’m thirsty |
| [03:02.38] | But it’s better I stay dry |
| [03:04.95] | Never more than two drinks away |
| [03:05.88] | |
| [03:12.88] | From crying… |
| [03:25.76] | From crying… |
| [00:30.41] | As hope and promise fade |
| [00:39.53] | And the sun forgets to rise |
| [00:50.03] | I' m lonely and I' m thirsty |
| [00:55.10] | But it' s better I stay dry |
| [00:59.79] | No more than two drinks away |
