Last night I heard the sweetest words
But if I wasn't drinking
I might have remembered more of what she said
There were sounds of promise
And shades of grace

I've been down and I've been waiting
Here she comes, here she comes
I've been down and I've been waiting
Here she comes, here she comes

Now another day has found me
And if I wasn't so stupid
I'd have ushered in the morning holding her tight
With sounds of promise
And shades of grace

I've been down and I've been waiting
Here she comes, here she comes
I've been down and I've been waiting
Here she comes, here she comes, here she comes

Well I'm done hanging on maybe
Well I'm done hanging on maybe

Tonight I'll say the sweetest words
But if I'm not dreaming I might not remember
To say just what I mean
With sounds of promise
And shades of grace

I've been down and I've been waiting
Here she comes, here she comes
I've been down and I've been waiting
Here she comes, here she comes, here she comes

Well I'm done hanging on maybe
Well I'm done hanging on maybe

I don't wanna go, she don't wanna go,
We don't need to go this time is ours

I don't wanna go, she don't wanna go,
We both know this time is ours tonight
