I Drank All of Our Precious Love Away

I ran all the way home from Baltimore

To beg you to forgive me just once more

The way I've treated you I know you shouldn't let me stay

I guess I drank our precious love away

I guess I drank away the only love and life worthwhile

But you know when I'm sober, being mean just ain't my style

I'm so sorry baby, I don't know what else to say

I guess I drank our precious love away

We were getting closer than we ever dreamed

And then I let bottle come between

I knew I'd finally gone too far, the night I heard you say

"You fool, you drank our precious love away"

But if you give me one more chance it won't be like the past

You've seen me take a million but you've seen me take my last

And with your help tomorrow I'll be stronger than today

Don't let me drink our precious love away

Don't let me drink our precious love away
