pour me a drink

pour me a drink

light me a cigarette

help me forget

the things that i've done

pour me a drink

then pour me another one

to keep out this cold wind

that blows through my soul

look at my life

here in these photographs

look at these faces

what a story they tell

there was a time

when i knew how to laugh

i'd drink to forget

but i remember it well

pour me a drink

light me a cigarette

help me forget

the things that i've done

pour me a drink

then pour me another one

to keep out this cold wind

that blows through my soul

so many promises

so many daydreams and plans

so many chances

that i let slip through my hands

pour me a drink

light me a cigarette

help me forget

the things that i've done

pour me a drink

then pour me another one

to keep out this cold wind

that blows through my soul
