Hem When I Was Drinking Lyrics

When I Was Drinking Lyrics

when i was drinking
when i was with you
living it up when the rent was
due
with nothing and no one to live up to

you and me dying on the
vine
holding hands and drinking wine
now i'm not the same girl i left
behind with you

twelve bars behind us
and twelve bars to
go
bottles of beer lined up in a row
one for each hour you didn't
show

you and me dying everyday
getting high just to pass away
but
that's not the reason i couldn't stay with you

now i am sober
now i'm
alone
three years have gone by since you have gone
letting you
go
letting me go on

but i'll raise a glass now to you and me
to to
lift me higher so i can see
which of these blessings are killing me
