Road To Recovery

(Stonewall Jackson)



Tonight there's a fire burning brightly

In my chimney though the weather's far from cold

It's your pictures and the letters you've sent me

You're gone so your mem'ries must go.



I have cry until I'm too weak to cry

I have drinked until the drinks won't go down

I must start on the road to recovery

Before there's no turning around.



--- Instumental ---



I realize there's little hope for me

If I keep your sweet mem'ries this way

But just knowing that I've lost you forever

Life's a long wait from here to my grave.



Just tonight I'll rely on the wine

To dim your mem'ry as till the last drop goes down

Then I'll start on the road to recovery

There'll soon be no turning around.



I must start on the road to recovery

Before there's no turning around...
