A Kiss Before I Go - Ryan Adams, The Cardinals

The engine turns on a dime

But I ain’t goin' nowhere, tonight

I ain’t been goin' nowhere for quite awhile

Can’t tell the truth in a house of lies

Can’t explain what I don’t know

One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go

One more kiss 'fore I go

One more night and day

Breath all heavy and slow

One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go

I’ll miss those nights at the bar

With every girl all loaded like freights

And the pain in the morning comes as easy as it goes

Can’t find the truth in a house of lies

And you can’t see tomorrow with yesterday’s eyes

One shot, one beer and a place where nobody cries

One more kiss 'fore I go

One more night and day

Breath all heavy and slow

One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go
