(Coverdale)
I've been burning my bridges
For too many years,
Drowning the sorrow
Of too many tears
Women and whiskey
Are my only friends,
One gives me strength,
One just pretends
I've been waiting my whole life
For things to work out right,
But, those lonely days turn into lonely nights
Yes, It do
I've heard all the wisdom
Of prophets and seers,
It don't soothe my passion
And it don't ease my fears
Burned by love
And blinded by snow,
Bad luck and trouble
Are with me wherever I go
I've been waiting my whole life
For things to work out right,
But those lonely days turn into lonely nights
Lonely days, lonely nights,
Lonely days, lonely nights
Lonely days, lonely nights,
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
Lonely days, lonely nights,
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright for me, for me
Lonely days, lonely nights,
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright...And I wipe the night from my eyes
Block out that sunny day and I
And everything is falling down around us
Just missing the rain yeah
And I’m happier now today
But don’t let me down, don’t let me go
A change of seasons inside of my

And we borrow too much
And form restrictions, we form lines
And we separate you from me
But sometimes
Sometimes we carry more weight than we own
Oh sometimes
And sometimes goes on
And night takes the light by the hand
And turns out that boring day yeah
And cries out loud
Never once, hanging on
Hanging on my words
Kills the feeling of being alive
And she’s happier now today
Don’t let her down, don’t let her go
Found no reasons,
We found no lies
We just bleed together
That’s how we realize and we
CHORUS:
Change directions, watch the tides
And we borrow too much
And form restrictions, we form lines
And we separate you from me
But sometimes
Sometimes we carry more weight than we own
Oh sometimes
And sometimes goes on and on and on…….
And somehow we’ll find a way
We’ll paste it back together
These ripped out pages of old coloring books
Your gold is silver
My blue is grey
It’s all held together by cellophane tape
CHORUS:
If we change directions, watch the tides
And we borrow too much
And for
