"One More Time" lyrics

"One More Time"

When the alcohol begins to dim the mind
And the fighting of the night is forgotten
I'll apologize sincerely and beg you to be kind
And I'll plead to be forgiven one more time

When the snow has all melted in the morning
With the agonizing conversation
You attack me when you want to like a leopardess from behind
And I'll promise never to shame you one more time

You tell me what is needed and you know I need to know
'Cause it's tearing up my body and brain and something is gonna have to go

When I wake up in the morning and can't remember
How the thunder came a-rolling into the room
And there was Jesus Christ beckoning me, I wouldn't even give him the time
You say you hate me then say you love me one more time

You tell me what is needed and you know I need to know
'Cause it's tearing up my body and brain and something is gonna have to go

The somersaults of the night can be an illusion
But escapism seems the only way to go
And if the aftermath is violent, that's the time to heed the sign
Oh but I'm thirsty, give me one more drink one more time
I said I'm thirsty, pass the bottle one more time
Oh God I'm thirsty, give me one more drink one more time, oh
