Drinking

You say the drinking is better than a woman

And you say the thinking takes too much time

Well, God save your children, should you have them

For to you, there's nothing if there's no wine

Ooh, you have so much more

Ooh, where has your time gone?

Ooh, where has your time gone?

Ooh, you have so much more

You sing like an angel, your voice melts my heart

Your words are of wisdom, your life has been hard

And, should you ever wonder where all the time has gone

You'll find the answer far away from home

Ooh, you have so much more

Ooh, where has your time gone?

And I don't want to see you like this when you're crawling

Please, don't you weep

'Cause I will shape the day

And make you feel alright

But you say the drinking is better than a woman

And you say the thinking takes too much time

You sing like a siren, your voice breaks my heart

And when you are crying, your tears are like wine

Ooh, ooh

Oh, oh, you have so much more

And I don't want to see you like this when you're crawling

Won't you weep for me, won't you breathe for me, won't you let me be

I don't want to see you like this when you're crawling, oh

Oh, please, don't you drink, don't you let me down

Won't you weep, won't you bleed

Hm, hm
