[Verse 1]
I wasn't drinking to forget, I was drinking to remember
How I once might have looked through the eyes of a stranger
When all hope should be gone still the dream somehow lingers
Like the ghost of a snowstorm in frostbitten fingers
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Ten thousand backwards glances won't bring second chances
I never knew I was wasted, I was way too far gone
[Verse 2]
The face I think is mine is not the face that I see
The worried face in the mirror
Whose worried eyes are fixed on me
All your beauty will be stolen by young girls in the night
A thief as quiet as a dark cloud that's stole away the moonlight
