I'm Going To Change My Ways... Again

This morning when I woke up
There were tearstains on my pillowcase
And through my blurry eyes
I looked at someone’s unfamiliar face
Well I wouldn’t touch a drop
If I could forget you now and then

Oh Lord I promise
And this time I really mean it
I’m going to change my ways…again

Well I’ve got a car that drives me any place
That I’d like to go
Just like a lover who shows me things
That I don’t yet know
But I look for you in every face I see
Every place I’ve been

Oh Lord I promise
And this time I really mean it
I’m going to change my ways…again

This time I’m going to try and be strong
This time
This time no more fancy men seen in flattering lights
With only one thing on my mind for lonely nights
This time

Well I’ve got a tab as long as the China Wall
In every bar in town
And I guess I got a reputation
For cutting up and being down
Well I lived each and every cliché
Between now and then

Oh Lord I promise
And this time I really mean it
I’m going to change my ways
Give up my wild days
I’m going to change my ways…again

So I take to the lies
And I take to the glass
And I take to the life of sin

Oh Lord I promise
And this time I really mean it
I’m going to change my ways
(I’ll wait a few more days)
I’m going to change my ways…again
