Chris Cornell Two Drink Minimum Lyrics

Two Drink Minimum Lyrics

So open promise fades

and the sun forgets to rise

I'm lonely and I'm
thirsty

but it's better I stay dry

No more than two drinks away

from crying



Stare into the glass

and wait for the time to
pass

And thank you for the offer

but you know I must decline

No more than two drinks away

from crying



There used to be
a time

When I could hold my head up high

My life stretched out
before me

and rivers flowed with wine

and had my love beside me

and everything was fine

But now the ride is over

It's hard to say
goodbye



So open promise fades

and midnight turns to day

I'd love to drown my sorrow

but I cannot tell a lie

No more than
two drinks away

from crying
