When I Was Drinking

 

Every night you are forsaken, first night you flail goodbye

Though I know it's hard to take me, I can't recall one reason why

 

Cause I know your mind is on the things I forget when I'm drinking

I know you're kind, but Jesus would laugh

Till I made it back

 

All the times I got real lost dear, nights and nevers getting blurred

Realize there's been a cost here, one you can't express in words

 

Cause I know your mind is on the things I forget when I'm drinking

I know you're kind, but Jesus would laugh

Till I made it back

 

Cause I know your mind is on the things I forget when I'm drinking

Know I'm behind on what one would refer to as thinking

And I still can't find my way home, though the red lights are blinking

I know my life, and Jesus, I'm sad

 

When it all goes it black
