I can put down the bottle if I have to Sleep it off ’til the sun begins to rise But the feeling of being empty Don’t appeal that much to me tonight I just need a little drop to take the edge off A taste of something so as not to feel But this hollow aching in my chest now Needs numbing and I don’t want to fight the tears Cause I don’t feel alone when I am being lonely I just feel alone when I am by your side (by your side) And I know, I know, it’ll never be the answer Please just let me have this one just for tonight I always seem to make the wrong decisions And hiding it by passing on the blame (passing on the blame) Vulnerable and tired of misunderstandings Lost and angry, crying out your name Cause I don’t feel alone when I am being lonely I just feel alone when I am by your side (by your side) And I know, I know, it’ll never be the answer Please just let me have this one just for tonight For tonight… Just one drink for tonight. As I’m broken and the bottles almost empty And I realise the pain never subsides I don’t need you but I have no fight left in me One more night of telling myself lies. Cause I don’t feel alone when I am being lonely I just feel alone when I am by your side (by your side) And I know, I know, it’ll never be the answer Please just let me have this one just for tonight Please just let me have this one just for tonight Please just let me have this one just for tonight

Heaven knows we’d find our way From the first day that we met Couldn’t wait to take your name In a blue and velvet dress Years go by not a thing has changed But the story tales on your face Side by side we have made mistakes But I’d do it all over again Sit and watch the flowers bloom Your favourite thing to do Nobody can take away These memories of you Years go by not a thing has changed But the story tales on your face Side by side we have made mistakes But I’d do it over again Paradise may come and go Never to replace Just as sure as the river flows You were always my saving grace You were always my saving grace. Even through the longest nights I no longer feel alone As the moon is rising high The heavens will take us home The heavens will take us home.
