This open promise fades 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 crying



Stare into the glass and wait for the time to pass

And thank you for the offer but you know I must decline

Never 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, rivers flow with wine

I had my love beside me and everything was fine



Now the ride is over, it's hard to say goodbye

This whole promise fades and midnight turns to day

I'd love to drown my sorrow but I cannot tell a lie

No more than two drinks away from crying
