She took a drink I saw her
Her face intensified
She took another and complained it was too dry
Maybe she needs it to keep her calm
And maybe she doesn't know why
I can't stand to see her need it all the time
It not so easy
It's something that it helps her unwind
It helps her to forget
And to ease her worried mind
She says she knows her limit
And she knows just when to stop
How can I believe her when she can hardly talk
She's got a lot to learn
She's got a long hard fight
Has to admit she's got her problems
She's got a lot to learn
She's got a long hard fight
Has to admit she's got her problems
To start to make it right
Tried to help her once
I said that I was on her side
Sometimes the finest of intentions goes awry
Didn't have the strength you see to face the fact
Will power was a quality she simply lacked
Oh yeah yeah yeah
She's got a lot to learn
She's got a long hard fight
Has to admit she's got her problems
In order to see the light
She's got a lot to learn
She's got a long hard fight
Has to admit she's got her problems
She'll never make it right
Dropped in late one night
I saw the light was on
She stumbled to the door
With a bottle that was half gone
Stared into her bloodshot eyes
And I walked out the door
I can't stand to see her need it anymore
She's got a lot to learn
She's got a long hard fight
Has to admit she's got her problem
In order to see the light
She's got a lot to learn
She's got a long hard fight
Has to admit she's got a problem
Or she'll never make it right
She's got a lot to learn
She's got a long hard fight
Has to admit she's got a problem
