[Verse 1]

When I was drinking

When I was with you

Living it up when the rent was due

With nothing and no one to live up to

[Chorus]

You and me dying on the vine

Holding hands and drinking wine

Now I'm not the same girl I left behind with you

[Verse 2]

Twelve bars behind us

And twelve bars to go

Bottles of beer lined up in a row

One for each hour you didn't show

[Chorus]

You and me dying everyday

Getting high just to pass away

But that's not the reason I couldn't stay with you

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Now I am sober

Now I'm alone

Three years have gone by since you have gone

Letting you go

Letting me go on

[Chorus]

But I'll raise a glass now to you and me

To lift me higher so I can see

Which of these blessings are killing me
