Story behind the song

My mentor Sara Pace wrote and recorded this song on her second CD.  I asked and received permission from Sara to rearrange and record this song with the focus on the addictive personality I heard in her song.  This song can be heard at www.sarapace.com

Lyrics

My tears seems to smear my watercolor dreams
My fabric of philosophy is hanging by a string
Bad is the only news the mail ever brings
I’m so tired I think I hear the deaths bell lonely ring.
Along the way, along the way

One more whiskey
In the morning
Makes my day a little more clear
Tomorrow, I’ll treat you better
Than I did today, I swear

You know, you looked so lovely there beneath the moonlit sky
Your knees folded out onto the ground and your hands held way up high
Had I only known you were wishing for wings to help you fly. 
Along the way, Oh a long, long way

One more whiskey
In the morning
Makes my day a little more clear
Tomorrow, I’ll treat you better
Than I did today, I swear

You are the apple of my eye, you are as sweet as cherry pie
If ever you should wander, Lord I fear my soul to die
Though I failed to hear your helplessness in your subtle cry
When you said, be true to your soul but be careful with mine
Along the way, along the way

One more whiskey
In the morning
Makes my day a little more clear
Tomorrow, I’ll treat you better
Than I did today, I swear

One more whiskey
In the morning
Makes my day a little more clear
Tomorrow, I’ll treat you better
Than I did today, I swear
