The Classic Crime
Drink in My Hand
[Verse 1]
I left a note on the table, I hope it finds you well
I hope you don't hurt like you did, 'cause I'd just blame myself
I know its for me, that I'm out on these streets
Bleeding nightly for these people I meet
But it's you who I long for, when I cannot sleep
It's enough it could drive me to drink

[Chorus]
I am almost nowhere
I'm getting there fast
You're the hope in my cold stare
You're the drink in my hand

[Verse 2]
When I picked up, you broke into tears
You said you weren't busy enough
I still don't know why you need me
And my broken down love
With each second that ticks, your voice rings in my ears
The memories flood back from all of our years
I tell you, "it's okay, there's nothing to fear"
I secretly hope I am right

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I left you last week and you told me
"Go on, and follow your dreams"
I think about that lately
Still, I don't know what it means
'cause you're what I dream of when I wake alone
As I drift away, as we talk on the phone
You're all I want, and that's all I know
And I still just can't wait to get home

[Chorus]
