[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
