If I was able
She said at the table
Id pour another
Glass of that wine
Then she stressed
So it seemed
That it mattered to me
Nothing was taking her mind
All in a storm
When youre down and forlorn
And you search you seek
And you find
Dont let the bottle
Become your best friend
Dont let it inside your head
Once you give in
You can never go back
Never be starting again
One drink is too many
Too many is never enough
And the girl who
Once was so pretty
Is a shadow of
What she once was
Has become what
She hated so much
Way back as a young girl
With dreams of the future
Remembers her mama
Would fight with her daddy
And she tried hard
To be the peacemaker
They would just
Push her aside
Seeing the drink
Was the demon
Between them
The cause of
The Great Divide
She knew the bottle
Was taking its toll
Never did it enter her mind
That way off in the future
Where no one was forsaken
Shed walk down that
Very same line
One drink is too many
Too many is never enough
And the girl who
Once was so pretty
Is a shadow of
What she once was
Has become what
She hated so much
One drink is too many
Too many is never enough
And the girl who
Once was so pretty
Is a shadow of
What she once was
One drink is too many
Too many is never enough
And the girl who
Once was so pretty
Is a shadow of
What she once was
Has become what
She hated so much
Has become what
She hated so much
