Two Drink Minimum

This open 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

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

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

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
