Cheers Songtext

Cheers Songtext
I watched a dream die
Saw the flicker fall from the prettiest eyes
Too young to realize that this would stick with me for all my life
You went away for days to find better ways to better you and I
And I apologize, apologize, I should have been more wise
I should have been more wise
She said, "Cheers, here′s to her very last year"
So happy you all could be here, oh, so sincere
And I can't seem to get my conscience clear
It′s true, she said, "This song's for you
And all I've put you through"
I just wanted to make you proud
A tear fell down and they screamed out loud here
I gave you broken glass and when you asked
I said this was my heart and how you make me feel
Hard to conceal when it′s all torn apart
You gave me all you had, the good and bad
So who am I to choose?
Confused, so much to lose
Only time can heal the memories that bruise
The memories that bruise
She said, "Cheers, here′s to her very last year"
So happy you all could be here, oh, so sincere
And I can't seem to get my conscience clear
It′s true, she said, "This song's for you
And all I′ve put you through"
I just wanted to make you proud
A tear fell down and they screamed out loud
Broken, balled up in the bottom of a bottle
Time tick the hours of the day, hoping for tomorrow
Sorrow swept the north side of Chicago
She off track but that's my momma, I′ma follow
To see me stumbling was the hardest sip to swallow
So I wallowed in the back wash of wishes
Dying each day in the dumbest of conditions
Far from what she visioned but she happy that we living
Finally pulled herself together with the grace that had been given
I shortly after did the same, no intervention
And this is how I say "I love you", my only intentions
And this is how I say "I love you", cheers
She said, "Cheers, here's to her very last year"
So happy you all could be here oh, so sincere
And I can't seem to get my conscience clear
It′s true, she said, "This song′s for you
And all I've put you through"
I just wanted to make you proud
A tear fell down and they screamed out loud here, here
Saw the flicker fall from the prettiest eyes
Too young to realize that this would stick with me for all my life
You went away for days to find better ways to better you and I
And I apologize, apologize, I should have been more wise
I should have been more wise
She said, "Cheers, here′s to her very last year"
So happy you all could be here, oh, so sincere
And I can't seem to get my conscience clear
It′s true, she said, "This song's for you
And all I've put you through"
I just wanted to make you proud
A tear fell down and they screamed out loud here
I gave you broken glass and when you asked
I said this was my heart and how you make me feel
Hard to conceal when it′s all torn apart
You gave me all you had, the good and bad
So who am I to choose?
Confused, so much to lose
Only time can heal the memories that bruise
The memories that bruise
She said, "Cheers, here′s to her very last year"
So happy you all could be here, oh, so sincere
And I can't seem to get my conscience clear
It′s true, she said, "This song's for you
And all I′ve put you through"
I just wanted to make you proud
A tear fell down and they screamed out loud
Broken, balled up in the bottom of a bottle

And all I've put you through"
I just wanted to make you proud
A tear fell down and they screamed out loud here, here
