Tears into Wine

The gun is loaded when the glass is full Down the hatch and the trigger’s pulled Off the wagon and back onto the stool I know that when I stare into your eyes I can see all the years of lies Ghosts and demons you never exorcised [Pre-Chorus] All the friends that I’ve ever known Are the streetlamps I follow home And I’m in the crowd but I’m all alone [Chorus] Oh, Lord, I just can’t Tear the moon from the stars tonight Twist my arm like a knife tonight And if you wanna leave, that’s alright Well, I’ll just turn these tears into wine His fate was written on a neon sign A DUI never changed his mind He got hooked like a fish caught on a line You never gave yourself a chance to shine Your destination’s a chalk outline And when you get to the gates, you’ll be denied [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] x2 All the friends that I’ve ever known Are the streetlamps I follow home The tide keeps pulling me down I try to reach higher ground I’ll never give up and drown Even though I just can’t [Chorus] x2 Tears into wine Tears into wine Well, I’ll just turn these tears into wine
