Don't look back in the morning

It's too late now I was burnin' up

Weighing me down like the alcohol

I say the words and you listen

The tears they fall, then they glisten now

Baby hold me, one last time

Holy mother got me in the grip of her hands

Squeezing every drop of blood out of love

The liquor burning holes in every word that I speak

You say that you love me, but won't let me breathe

You say that you love me, but won't let me breathe

You say that you love me, but won't let me

I can't live and be lovin'

I can't live and be tellin' the truth

I can't live and be loving you

Holy mother got me in the grip of her hands

Squeezing every drop of blood out of love

The liquor burning holes in every word that I speak

You say that you love me but won't let me breathe

I'm praying that the words I say don't rip you apart

'Cause I know it hurts so much to break your heart

It's midnight, and the screamin' isn't doing us good

You say that you love me, but you never could

But baby, I swear I tried

There's nothing more that I'd like

Than to be yours, for life

But there's something inside screaming this is not right

Give it a few more years

Let the wound finally heal

Who I am to hold you back?

From finding someone who could love you like that

Love you like that

Love you like that

Love you like that
