| Finally the tether breaks on Tuesday night I ring
|
| He says we can get together, but he’s staying in
|
| One more night, inside, I mean you have to do what feels right
|
| But in the morning light its cold, its cold, it’s so cold
|
| Please let me stay, please let me stay
|
| But he’s trying to get me out the door in his diplomatic way
|
| I had speeches, I had scenes
|
| Now I have quiet memories and the occasional dream
|
| I’ve laid to rest my craziness
|
| for today today today…
|
| I’m bleeding like a soldier
|
| Into your pint of pride
|
| A pack of straights and a corner seat
|
| This was the last time I cried
|
| Why could you only be a man
|
| When you had a drink in your hand?
|
| One more night inside
|
| And more for the road
|
| I had speeches, I had scenes
|
| Now I have quiet memories and the occasional dream
|
| I’ve laid to rest my craziness
|
| for today today today…
|
| Finally the tether breaks on Tuesday night I ring
|
| He says baby we can get together, but he’s staying in
|
| One more night, inside, I mean you have to do what feels right
|
| But in the morning light its cold, its cold |
