This song was written by Stephanie Ankner and myself. She came to me with the song's great structure and I basically added a few lines and came up with a very simple melody so it could be a complete singable song.
ONE MORE ROUND
Verse 1
I‘VE SAID IT ALL BEFORE
AND I’LL SAY IT AGAIN
Our love cannot be cured
MY HEART CAN NOT MEND
CAN’T FORGET YOUR CHEATING
WON’T FORGIVE YOUR LIES
You were so misleading
NOW ITS TIME WE SAY GOODBYE
(CHORUS)
Cause you're all out of time
I've spent to many years
TRYING TO DO WHATS RIGHT.
and I've cried too many tears
I'm giving up on our love,
I'm throwing in the towel)
cause I'm not strong enough
TO FIGHT ONE MORE ROUND.
Verse 2:
WE COULD NEVER BE
WHAT WE ONCE WERE
YOU THREW THAT ALL AWAY
Now the tides have turned.
THERE IS NO MORE US
THERE WILL NEVER BE
you gave that all up
Now It's time for you to leave
(CHORUS)
Cause you're all out of time
I've spent to many years
TRYING TO DO WHATS RIGHT.
and I've cried too many tears
I'm giving up on our love,
I'm throwing in the towel)
cause I'm not strong enough
TO FIGHT ONE MORE ROUND.
I'm sitting at the bar tonight
Thinking of those years
I spent trying to do what's right
And how I cried all those tears.
So here goes my toast to love
I'm throwing in the towel.
yeah I'm given up.
bartender, one more round.
