And now I've lost my only chance for paradise Honky tonk friends and a glass of wine were all the I could see Too late I find the world behind holds happiness for me Cause a mem'ry's all that I have left up heaven even share Oh what a fool I was to think that you would always care You warned me once you warned me twice And now I've lost my only chance for paradise [ steel ] Late hours false friends and a glass of wine hold only misery Thay caused me love that once was mine you turned your back on me A broken man I walk the streets how could I be so blind It's plain to see you're through with me you loved me your last time You warned me once you warned me twice And now I've lost my only chance for paradise And now I've lost my only chance for paradise
