Waking up I tried to stumble out of bed
My body ached, I wasn't sure if I was dead
I had a hammer in my brain, nearly driving me insane
Guess I'm a fool trying to drink you out of my head

'Cos in times gone before I knew you would call, but this time I don't know
When that look in your eyes turned from fire to ice
I knew then I'd done enough to make you go

Chorus:
Gotta leave that bottle alone, 'cos love turned from fire to ice
Now I'm a lonely man, whose life just slipped right through his hands
So baby please come home

Not a word passed your lips when you walked out
I knew you'd taken enough, it wasn't hard to work it out
I'd never put the blame on you, 'cos you've done all that you could do
I'm trying to fight it myself, but I don't know how

Somewhere deep in my mind, I know I can find the strength that it's gonna take
If it's do it or die, I know I can try
If not for you then at least for my own sake

chorus

(Solo)

Somewhere deep in my mind, I know I can find the strength that it's gonna take
If it's do it or die, I know I can try
If not for you then at least for my own sake

I gotta leave that bottle alone, 'cos love turned from fire to ice
Now I'm a lonely man, whose life just slipped right through his hands
My life just slipped right through my hands, so baby please come home
