Lyrics

Bumped in to an old friend
Started relivin' high school again
So I offered to buy the first round
Got himself a decaf
He never refused a beer like that
so I asked, hey what's so different now

Pre
He said the good times that we had before
Always left me chasin' more
I tried to find

chorus:
Redemption in a glass
Forgiveness for my past
courage for my future
in a cup running over
down, down it flowed
to the fill the hole in my soul
and it made me think
It was more, more than just a drink

His happy family fairytale
Ended when his business failed
And whiskey helped ease thru that pain
His wife finally changed the locks
Put half his life in a cardboard box
And dumped the other half down the drain

Pre
When he bought a few bottles with his wedding ring
He said, I just wanted one thing
I had to have
ch

Bridge
Two years, twelve hard steps, and he finally gave up
He was offered some bread and tiny little cup
As he knelt at altar of the old Wesleyan church
He said I heard, Come to me, all ye who thirst
I finally found...
