Got drunk by myself last night

& they say thatÃÆ'¢s no way to make things right

I just didnÃÆ'¢t have anything better to do

The dog was asleep on the living room rug

And I watched a show about a crime of drugs

Punished a bottle of bourbon until it was through

I donÃÆ'¢t care that I canÃÆ'¢t sleep

IÃÆ'¢d just as soon stay up all week

Might get some things done while others dream

The heater broke and the room got cold

And my knees and ankles say IÃÆ'¢m getting older

The phone finally rang but it wasnÃÆ'¢t for me



Chorus:



If everyone should be together

I guess no one would be alone

ThatÃÆ'¢s a lot of tradeoffs in the end

Somewhere in the fields of heaven

Proud Souls laugh and love together

Some where between passion and losing friends



Sleep finally came but I woke up alone

And my head was next to the telephone

A gave the sun a cussing as I drew the shade

One thing that seems always true

When IÃÆ'¢m hung over the sky is blue

A rough night for me makes a hell of a day



I believe in ghost and democracy

And that each man should leave his legacy

That mans work great or be it small

But I donÃÆ'¢t believe in everything

Like the designated hitter, or that diamond rings

Can make love last for ever for one and all



Chorus:



(Repeat) Somewhere between passion and losing friends
