One more drink

You see, before you I had my life together 
thought running and alone was always better
now thinking about you is all I do
I couldn't wait to get my hands on you
all over each other our fingerprints
leaving an evidence trail of our naughty sins

You came to me on a rainy night
a mark you left on everything in sight
you let me in and I just shut down
I'm just a  fool, a clown 

Laying here with my eyes closed 
staring into my nightmares exposed
imagining you listening to Sade on the radio
tears flowing to "I keep trying for you" in the electric glow
I didn't want to be your heartbreaker
listen to you tell me about your matchmaker

You came to me on a rainy night
a mark you left on everything in sight
you let me in and I just shut down
I'm just a  fool, a clown 

Without you I can't drink enough 
bottom of the pit, I'm only going down
going to drink it all I think till you're around
you saw my everything and I let you say goodbye
parts of me will forever curl up and die 
I'm into you hopelessly
the kind I can't ever fall out of endlessly

You came to me on a rainy night
a mark you left on everything in sight
you let me in and I just shut down
I'm just a  fool, a clown 

Now that I've lost you 
I still can't believe it's true
not this way--we can't be through
your name I'm left screaming till I'm blue

You came to me on a rainy night
a mark you left on everything in sight
you let me in and I just shut down
I'm just a  fool, a clown 

You came to me on a rainy night
a mark you left on everything in sight
you let me in and I just shut down
I'm just a  fool, a clown.

Thank you Cherie. I find loss in it's essence is simple. No dressing it up.
