Lyrics
Each time I see a crowd of people Just like a fool I stop and stare It's really not the proper thing to do But maybe you'll be there

I go out walking after midnight Along the lonely thoroughfare It's not the time or place To look for you But maybe you'll be there

You said your arms would always hold me You said you lips were mine alone to kiss Now after all those things you told me How can it end like this Someday if all my prayers are answered

I'll hear a footstep on the stair With anxious heart I'll hurry to the door And maybe you'll Be there Drinking again, and thinking of when, when you loved me

I'm having a few and wishing that you were here

Making the rounds, accepting a round from a strangers

Being a fool, just hoping that you'll appear

Sure, I can borrow a smoke

Maybe tell some joker a bad joke

But nobody laughs, they don't laugh at a broken heart

Oh, yeah, I'm drinking again

It's always the same, that same old story

After the kicks, there's little old mixed-up me

Tryin' to lose, a dream that used to be

Look at me, I'm drinking again, drinking all over town, yeah, I'm drinking again
