You slurred your words when you asked
Like the tongues you were speaking in, "Do you wanna dance?"
Then you kissed me like you did when we were young and broken
When you used to be my biggest fan
Summer flew on by, feelings fleeted like May flies in July
You knocked me dead
October light hung low
Streets of Chicago draped in shades of gold gave us life
At Christmas Midway froze, under feet of snow
This is terminal, you said goodbye
True love is just about as rare as four leaf clovers
Too bad I never gave a damn
Your cup was empty now its spilling over
Seems you've found your way to better hands
The weekend Jesus died you left him and I
Three days with no light, love is blind
It looks like you've found your new christ
I just could never love you quite like he can
Someone who truly understands the ins and outs and ups and downs of getting you sober
Thank God you've made yourself a plan
Loneliness could never hold you quite like he can
Someone who truly understands the ins and outs and ups and downs of getting you sober
I hope this time you make amends
(The sun don't shine in hell!)
Sink your teeth into your faith as much as you can bear
Somethings can't be explained by man
You tried to find heaven and wound up damn near nowhere
But I hope you find your promised land...
Someplace where you will be in better hands
