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
