lyrics

The young man fell into the bar, sixteen years since through that door
And he hadn’t seen the light of day, since 1994
No one turns to look at him, as he walks slowly ‘cross the floor
And he’s staring at the barman’s eyes, and he’s seen it all before

CHORUS
And he drinks another bottle, it’s the last one he’ll start
Yeah he drinks another bottle, it goes straight to his heart

Well the young girl she’s been sitting there, silence screaming thro’ her head
And her eyes are thin her hair is dark, sometimes she wishes she were dead
No one hears her calling out, the barman sees her from his side
And she’s crying ‘bout her husband’s grave, sixteen years since he died

CHORUS

Well the young man finds another dime, and he plays his favourite song
He always meant to learn the words, never thought he’d take this long
And the young girl goes to dance with him, and they’re making out real good
And she stares into the young man’s eyes, he feels the warmth of his own blood

CHORUS
