[Verse 1]

As hope and 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

[Verse 2]

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

[Bridge]

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

[Verse 3]

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
