The bottle is almost empty the clock just now struck ten

We know it's wrong for us to meet but the fire's gone out at home

Sweet words of love you remember that the one at home forgot
D                                 G             D
Each time we say is the last time but we keep hangin' on

And there's nothing cold as ashes after the fire is gone
