One More Chance to Stay

Sunlight through a broken window pane

Moves across a worn down hardwood floor

The evening brings the thunder and the rain

Nothing like the calm after the storm

You are everything I ever wanted

And I am more than what you bargained for

Forever is the echo of a promise

Broken by the slamming of a door

Stronger than the whiskey, burning higher than the flames

The fire in your touch is like a needle in my veins

And I might be the death of you, but you love me just the same

And every chance we've had to say goodbye

Is one more chance to stay

So I kiss you once to show you that I want you

And twice to show you I will not let go

And when you are lost out in the darkness

I will be the light that guides you home

Stronger than the whiskey, burning higher than the flames

The fire in your touch is like a needle in my veins

And you might be the death of me, but I love you just the same

And every chance we've had to say goodbye

Is one more chance to stay

Sometimes late at night, when you are sleeping

I watch the moonlight drift across your face

I thank the Lord for sending you to keep me

To catch me should I ever fall from grace

Stronger than the whiskey, burning higher than the flames

The fire in your touch is like a needle in my veins

And I might be the death of you, but you love me just the same

And every chance we've had to say goodbye

Is one more chance to stay

Oh, every chance we've had to say goodbye

Is one more chance to stay
