lyrics

"There's A Chill"

When I get like I will
With the whiskey and the pills
She is there to pick me off the floor
And just because she don't mind
Doesn't mean that it's right
So here I am
With my hand on the door

And there's a note to explain
All the terrible things
That I've done and never had the heart to tell her
I thought I owed her that at least
But still I take it when I leave
Cause I know
If she found out it would kill her

I'm in a motel by the coast
With the shadows and the ghosts
And some girl I met sometime that evening
When she calls me and she's cryin'
And she's askin' me why
And for the life of me
I can't think of a reason

One week later, 6am
I come stumblin' in
And there's a chill in the air of our bedroom
And she just curls up in my arms
With a lie to keep her warm
A "Goodnight"
And a whispered "I love you"
