As Hope And Promise Fade
Chris Cornell

So open promise fade,

And the sun forgets to rise

I’m lonely and I’m thirsty

But it’s better I stay dry

No more than two drinks away from pain


Stare into the glass

And wait for the time to pass

And I thank you for the offer

But you know I must decline

No more than two drinks away

From crying


There used to be a time

When I could hold my head up high

My life stretched out before me

And rivers flowed with wine

I had my love beside me

And everything was fine

Now the ride is over

It’s hard to say goodbye


So open promise fades

And midnight turns to day

And I find you for the …

But I cannot tell a lie

Never more than 2 drinks away

From crying.
