THE SLIDE

i know i should have drawn the line
a drink or two before closing time
but inviting looks washed in neon
were more than enough to lead me on
a slippery slope a wayward path
so i was bound to face an angel's wrath
my demons determined to drive me mad
betraying you and all we had

   so many years out on the edge
   i'm still crawling through my wreckage
   always hoping you'll be on the other side
   and desperately hoping to stop the slide

a few hours with a stranger erased
a love that i can never replace
a fool opens dangerous doors
forgiveness has its limits, you reached yours

   so many years out on the edge...

callin', callin'
fallin', fallin'

   so many years out on the edge...

i know i should have drawn the line
a drink or two before closing time...



Comments are always welcome. Any kind.

Happy New Year to everyone. Hope it is a very musical one!!
