It’s too late for old dreams   All my life I made excuses   Recent nights, obliterated   Sea of lights, shining on      He set me up for disappointment   I drank enough to recite the words he wrote   They singing in my head so long      Cold rain will fall tonight   Cold rain will fall   This bar knows my hip,    The way that I tip    This bottle right up to my lips   And I know this feeling I drift through the ceiling    One day out of one thousand I’d guess      His metaphors have gone to pasture    All I got is what I have here   Those old records don’t sound the same   Can’t listen to them anyway      Cold rain will fall tonight   Cold rain will fall   This bar knows my hip,    The way that I tip    This bottle right up to my lips   And I know this feeling I soar through the ceiling    One day out of one thousand I’d guess   Yeah, one day out of one thousand or less      4100 times a day   52 weeks out of the year   All is here and all is gone   Nowhere to go but time to move on   All is here and all is gone   Nowhere to go but time to move on      Cold rain will fall tonight   Cold rain will fall tonight   Cold rain will fall      And I love this feeling   When I break through the ceiling   One day out of one thousand I’d guess   Yeah, one day out of one thousand I’d guess   One day out of one thousand at best
