Tonight there's a fire burning brightly in my chimney
|
Though the weather's far from cold
|
It's your picture and the letters you send me you're gone so your mem'ry must go
|
I have cry until I'm too weak to cry I have drink until the drinks won't go down
|
I must start on the road to recovery before there's no turning around
|
[ piano - steel ]
|
I realize there's little hope for me if I'll keep your sweet mem'ries this way
|
But just knowing that I've lost you forever life's a long way from here to my grave
|
Just tonight I'll rely on the wine to dim your mem'ry as the last drop goes down
|
Then I'll start on the road to recovery there'll soon be no turning around
|
I must start on the road to recovery before there's no turning around
|
