I had an inkling this was going to end in tears   All the drinking - it just confirmed my fears   I remember thinking   “God, I hope someday you’ll see me   Even briefly   In a good light”      So I saw it coming   But a month turned into twelve   Before I thought of running   Crying, “Darling, save yourself!”   But I did nothing    Hoping that you’d see me   Even briefly   In a good light      Oh, I’ll admit a moment’s doubt   When the candle flickered out   Yeah, but wait another year   Seemed such a pale idea   And darling, it’s dark in here      God, I hope someday you’ll see me   Even briefly   In a good light   In a good light…
