lyrics

STRONGER THAN ALCOHOL

She had the nerve to say the things
That she wrote in her journal at night
That monumental verve that springs
From such a lucid personal insight
Your ravenous, back-alley ways
Proactive, like a devil on the make
Set her drifting from her ideals
Into an azure hovel where secrets bake
Stronger than alcohol
Your love is vast and it is tall
Stronger than any words in a song
My candle’s burning bright
But it will not last the night
So let’s bath in the light
It casts on the waters of blue
You’ve met your Waterloo
You stumbled in like a trucker
Who needed a brew
But you made a miscalculation
When you shamelessly tried to woo
This girl with delirious sass
And a pile of anguish and bitterness
She grabbed the cane tipped with shiny brass
As you walked out to the grass
Stronger than alcohol
Your love is vast and it is tall
Stronger than any words in a song
My candle’s burning bright
But it will not last the night
So let’s bath in the light
It casts on the waters of blue
You’ve met your Waterloo
