I don’t even think a lifetime
is going to be enough
to fix your heart up baby
you treated it so rough
I’ve seen you falling down with your liquor breath
I watched you fight your tears
as you fight yourself

I guess something must have happened
way back long ago
did you give your heart to someone
and they turned it all to stone
and now you try to stop the hurting
drinking every night
those scars are deeper baby
in the morning light
I know it’s hard to do what’s right on your own
that’s why I’m here so you don’t have to be alone
I’ve reached my hand to you
so many times before
I wonder if you know how much I really care
because I really care

I don’t even think a lifetime
is going to be enough
to fix your heart up baby
’cause you treated it so rough
I’ve seen you falling down
all liquored up
when will you tell yourself
now I’ve had enough
I don’t even think a lifetime
I don’t even think a lifetime
I don’t even think a lifetime will be enough
