What was that?
And where did all those stars come from?
Carton, you are drunk... aren't you?
I can't recall a night so clear
The heavens seem an inch away
not cold and empty like before...
A night as sweet as this tonight--
I can't recall
I can't recall the taste of wine
Have I been drinking down my days?
A crippled wretch content to crawl.
If I have been that man right now
I can't recall
I can't recall my sense of shame
Was failure born nside my heart?
Or did the many years of waste leave it there?
Did I just feel it disappear because you care?
The choice is mine
Tomorrow's at my feet
All yesterday's a haze
I pray that I will not repeat.
I can't recall a night so clear
The heavens seem an inch away
and not unfriendly after all,
after all
If life was ever quite this sweet
I can't recall
