NO FURTHER FROM THE NEXT

I USED TO GO OUT AND PARTY, WITH SO CALLED FRIENDS OF MINE
WE COULD STAY OUT ALL NIGHT, AND HAVE A GOOD TIME
WE MIGHT GET INTO A JAM, BUT THAT WAS OK
WE COULD ALWAYS GO BACK, AND FIX IT THE NEXT DAY

IT ALWAYS STARTED OUT HARMLESS, IT WAS NO BIG DEAL
BUT JUST LIKE A SNOWBALL HEADING DOWNHILL, IT STARTED TO GET REAL
SEEMED THERE WAS ALWAYS TROUBLE BREWING
I COULDN’T FIGURE OUT WHAT FOR
WHAT WAS ONCE A LOT OF FUN, WASN’T FUN ANYMORE
(Chorus)
THEN I HAD TO BACK AWAY FROM THE BAR, ONE DAY AT A TIME
I HD TO CHANGE MY WAY OF THINKING, AND REARRANGE MY MIND
I’LL KEEP LEARNING FROM THE BIG BOOK, AND GET LOST IN THE TEXT
WHILE I’M A LONG WAY FROM THE LAST DRINK
I’M NOT ANY FURTHER FROM THE NEXT

THE LIFE I NOW LIVE, IT’S ALL GOD’S GIFT, HAPPY JOYOUS AND FREE
THAT BEING SAID, NO MATTER WHERE I GO, I’M STILL STUCK WITH ME
IT IS TRUE THAT MY WORSE DAY SOBER, IS BETTER THAN MY BEST DAY DRUNK
I’M JUST GLAD I’M STILL HERE TO TELL YOU, THAT I’M GETTING RID OF ALL THAT JUNK
(To Chorus)
