Raise My Glass

Down the street a lamp light glows
The only heat through the slow fire and snow
I raise my voice but it rings hallow
I raise my glass, my every time you called
I raise my glass every time

You told me once that all it would take
To let the wind carry the weight
Is a chance to risk another heartache
I raise my glass to every mistake
I raise my glass every time

I take a boardwalk down to the bay
I listen to the waves
And its a price that I've had to pay
For every glass that I raised

I took a job at a factory plant
There are some things I can do
There are some things I can't
I haven't been the same since the accident
I raise my glass in resentment
I raise my glass every time

Ninety miles an hour in the dead of the night
You leaned over and you cut out the light
I flipped the Z10, I was high as a kite
I raise my glass to the dark sick night
I raise my glass every time
I take a boardwalk down to the bay
I listen to the waves
And its a price that I forever pay
For every glass I raised

I haunt these streets till the bar rooms close
I only live to become a ghost
You were the one I always loved the most
I raise my glass to one final toast
I raise my glass one last time

Then, I take a boardwalk down to the bay
I listen to the waves
And it's a price that I no longer pay
For every glass I raised, for every glass I raised
Every glass I raised, for every glass I raised
