Last night I heard the sweetest words

But if I wasn't' drinking

I might have remembered more of what she said

There were sounds of promise

And shades of grace



I've been down and I've been waiting

Here she comes here she comes



Now another day has found me

And if I wasn't so stupid

I'd have ushered in the morning holding her tight

With sounds of promise

And shades of grace



I've been down and I've been waiting

Here she comes here she comes



I'm done hanging on maybe



Tonight I'll say the sweetest words

But if I'm not dreaming I might not remember

To say just what I mean



With sounds of promise

And shades of grace



I'm done hanging on maybe



I don't wanna go, she don't wanna go,

We don't need to go this time is ours tonight
