I can't hold you in my arms
But in this bed I hold you in my dreams
Late at night I need your charms
But there not there or so it seems

Every night I hold you
I hold you in my dreams
You dance through my window
On star light and moon beams

I keep going back for you
This dream is a sweet dream
And its a quiet night
I hear you say it will be all right

In the morning I wake up and worry
What's gonna happen to me
As I clime from these sheets
And start walking these streets
Your all I happen to see

Now there's not a trace
Of your beautiful face
And I see it slipping away
And again it's a quiet night
It will be alright
If I could just start sleeping.

There's a spark in your eye
Its not meant for me
But you still have my heart
I'm a love amputee

I'm at the end of my wits
Don't want you to see
Now what I hold on to
Are just memories

I took the good with the bad
Now you've walked away
With theses tears in my eyes
I won't beg you to stay

I don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
Set here with the bottle
And drink over you

But if I love you as much
As much as I say
I'll stop all my fighting
And let you walk away.

There is a chill in the air
The cold wind on my neck
I been drinking so much
I'm a physical wreck .

I stumble then fall
Roll around on the ground
I'm still looking for hope
But theres none to be found.

I continue to drink
And I call out your name
I pray that you'll come
And ease all my pain.

Knowing three words
Would dry all my tears
The touch of your hand
Would take away all of my fears.

I continue to drink
As the cold wind still blows
What happened to me
Nobody knows.

We are just friends
And we both know
That's as far as it will ever go

But my heart
It does cry for you
Hold in the emotions
Is all I can do

I want so much more
Than you can give to me
I want you pain you see
And your laughter its more than physical
It's your heart that I'm after

But if I love you
Like I know that I do
Don't want it to end
So I'll settle for friends

All this drinkin I am doing
Won't make your memory fade away
I've drowned myself in Kentucky Wiskey
My thoughts and feelings in disarray

This heart of mine has fell to pieces
A million shards laying on the ground
No doctor in this world could put it back together
So drinkin is the only hope for me in town

Every night I try to fall asleep cryin
But I'll just pass out again
I want to wake up with no lack of tryin
But I'll just come too again
I've played this game of love before
But your the one that I fell for
Now I'm drinkin with a broken heart

My friends say that I need to be careful
Cause I'm drinkin way to much
I'm head over heals *** over tin cups
Over you but clearly way out of touch

I have never drank like this before
But your the one that I fell for
Only wish that you could see
Now I'm drinkin with a broken heart

Every night I try to fall asleep cryin
But I'll just pass out again
I want to wake up with no lack of tryin
But I'll just come too again
I've played this game of love before
But your the one that I fell for
Now I'm drinkin with a broken heart

It has been a while sense you left me
I still don't understand the reason why
He came for you and you left me
And all I wanna do is set here and cry

I remember the way that you loved me
You could take away all of my fears
The painful peaks and valley's
A look from you made them disappear

I know your not coming home
Its the same as yesterday
But I still walk the miles of headstones
To place my tears upon your grave

Cold and damp
With a chill in the air
Lost walking the streets
Life doesn't seem fair

Shattered and broken
His hopes and his dreams
His once bright future  
Is not what it seems

He's been rained on road hard
Put away wet
Many miles of pain
He has not seen yet

Beaten up drug out
And left for dead
Only hanging on
By a few old threads

He needs one more drink
To get him through the night
What's happened to him
Just doesn't seem right

All of his life he's been a good man
Does the right thing when ever he can
Bad things happen to good people to
Just be glad it hasn't happened to you
