Paul Smith - For the Price of a Song lyrics

One day when times ain't so tight One day we'll rise and live again One day I'll set my sh** up right And find myself And I'll come back to find you then One day when coward's not my name One day I'll get up off the floor One day I'll turn and face the flame And you will show me to the door And we won't look back again [Chorus] Because I bought into a lie Because yesterday is gone away And because a drink ain't the price of a song anymore I say you've got me gaunt and kind of rare I hear my punchline failing down below me in the air I hold my breath and peek at all of My old friends down there A weak wave bye to all the Townes I've known Through the tunnel now I see the light And if I don't trip up and I don't get caught One day I might make that final move The way you're tellin' me I ought Might find one day sooner then we thought [Chorus] Because I bought into a lie Because yesterday is gone away And because a drink ain't the price of a song anymore
