(Dan Messe)
|
|
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
|
|
You and me dying on the vine
|
Holding hands and drinking wine
|
Now I'm not the same girl I left behind with you
|
|
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
|
|
You and me dying everyday
|
Getting high just to pass away
|
But that's not the reason I couldn't stay with you
|
|
Now I am sober
|
Now I'm alone
|
Three years have gone by since you have gone
|
Letting you go
|
Letting me go on
|
|
But I'll raise a glass now to you and me
|
To lift me higher so I can see
|
