The light is a-fading
Slipping under the door
And the glass on the bar is nearly dry
Your face is but a memory
I can barely sketch it out
Through the bottom of my whiskey and rye
When I think about your smile
When I think about your hands
When I think about holding you tight
It's all I got left in the spindrifting dirge
Of this honky tonk nicotine night
Come back to me little one
Come back to where you belong
Come back to me little one
Let me sing you this sweet, sad song
The night is a-coming
Like a curtain that's falling
And my heart is porous with desire
There's nothing I can do
To bring you on back
Hurt so bad just wish I'd expire
When I think about your hair
When I think about your eyes
When I think about holding you tight
It's all I got left in the spindrifting dirge
Of this honky tonk nicotine night
The day is a-dawning
And I’m all alone
Set ‘em all up
I’m dry as a bone
