	Story Behind the Song This song is about the despair and excuses that destroy an alcoholics life. Lyrics Word and music by Dennis John Peyton Copyright 1998 All rights reserved Someone's laughing with the bar flies with no where to go Someone's crying in the hallway singing someone else's song Pounding down the last can of what she calls hope In pursuit of nothing but raring to go Three in the morning, the phone rings and its no big surprise She says, "Just called to say hello" and breaks down and cries Goes on and on about some love sometime somewhere long ago With each drink her life burns down to barely just a glow And When you are lost and there's no way home Cryin's easier than death low moan I really don't wana give it up my life was once so sweet But I can't find my way the last drink of the day for me Later on as the sun goes down she's back Among the flies Lights another cigarette hoping someone will buy Doesn't matter who or why she knows to play along And as the barman draws another one she's hummin someone else's song. Finds excuses for everything more than reasons can demand She says, "Never had a chance in life with this rascal on my back" But if you'd just stay on the phone tonight I might get back on track And When you are lost and there's no way home Cryin's easier than death low moan I really don't wana give it up my life was once so sweet But I can't find my way the last drink of the day for me
