This love burns my essence
It burns my soul to ashes
This love runs through my entire body
And flames prevail in my being
Your eyes, your lips
My desire to only see
You hand, your heart
Both my desire to hold
How could I have been so blind
That you were the only love I had
But I wasted my love on others
Who turned my heart to dust
So the glasses of whiskey ease my pain
To numb it only for a moment
I drink away the anticipation
Listening to every lie
So I still sit here drinking
Listening to angels sing their lullabye.
