1. So 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
2. Stare into the glass
and wait for the time to pass
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
But now the ride is over, it's hard to say goodbye
3. So open 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
