lyrics

Well it's been 40 years and I haven't learned it yet
Been singing solo when I want to sing duet
I don't deserve the generosity I get
but can I borrow one more cigarette

Try not to say out loud the things I'm thinkin' of
If only I could get some assistance from above
or down below, all I want to know is how to get rid of
these feelings I have missed out on love

Well it's my own damn fault I know
I realized that a thousand years ago
I should just end this tragic show
Now don't you forsake me but please don't mistake me
I'd dig my own grave rather than let go

I've done so many things I'd never wish on you
I couldn't forgive myself even if I wanted to
This long and lonely road is coming to an end
but for just one night can we pretend?

Well it's my own damn fault I know
I realized that a thousand years ago
I should just end this tragic show
Now darlin' don't hate me but please don't mistake me
I'd dig my own grave rather than let go
