I had an ocean of promises
|
that never came true
|
I had a mountain of hope baby
|
sailed right off into the blue
|
thought I had everything I want
|
but then the truth comes clear
|
|
All I got left is this one bottle of tears
|
all I got left is this one bottle of tears
|
|
Now come drink one with me honey
|
yeah one for old times sake
|
the taste ought to be familiar by now
|
no there ain't no mistake
|
grab a glass pour it slow
|
drinkin' a toast to the long lost years
|
|
(repeat chorus)
|
|
It's always been here waitin'
|
down at the end of the line
|
white table cloth two empty glasses
|
filled with tears and a bottle of wine
|
|
(repeat chorus)
|
|
Now it's gettin late so let's drink up
|
here's to me and here's to you
|
and here's to hope, love, faith, and dreams
|
and all the things that we never could do
|
don't wait 'round on no miracle
|
ain't nothin' close to a miracle here
|
just lonely, lonely nothin'
|
nothin' but this bottle of tears
|
nothin' but this bottle of tears
|
nothin' but this bottle of tears
|
