lyrics

THE EDGE OF DESPAIR

I just can’t own you and God it’s a sin I should try
But I. I love you. And every day I watch a piece of me die.

Well that’s the story of my Life. That’s the story of my Life.
All this drinking I swear, trying to drown my cares
It’s just whiskey and the edge of despair

I’ve got something to tell you, so God it’s a shame you’re nowhere near
There’s so much. So much I could tell you. So maybe I’ll phone you right after this beer.

I’m drinking to forget you, but all I’m ever doing is thinking of you more
Your eyes are all that I’m seeing. Even as I’m falling down to the floor.
