Brenda

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Brenda, pass the brandy to me one more time It must have dropped another ten degrees Wind's been screaming like a battered woman It's a storm like I've never seen before And life makes you walk a thin gray line 'Tween the living and the dead Haven't we been waiting all our lives Just to hear the angels sing inside our heads? [Verse 2] Brenda, pass the book to me one more time I can't recall the chapter or the verse I guess we shouldn't really be surprised I guess we should expect the worst It was another Black Friday when the bottom dropped out And on Wall Street I chanced to find a pearl I was terminally sick at the Mayo Clinic When I met this doctor with a cure [Pre-Chorus] Now there's a witness In the courtroom Of a heart in disarray And I believe his testimonial I would die for it this day, yeah [Chorus] While the light fades While the light fades While the light fades from your eyes [Verse 3] Brenda, I am in a miserable state I wanna hold on to something strong Trying to regain some innocence It's been going, going, going, going, gone [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 4] And I feel just like an orphan Knocking on the doors of a million homes Sure, I feel your arms around me But it still don't mean I don't feel alone [Pre-Chorus] Now there's a witness In the courtroom Of a heart in disarray And I believe his testimonial I would die for it this day, yeah [Chorus] While the light fades While the light fades While the light fades from While the light fades While the light fades While the light fades from your eyes [Outro] Light fades from your eyes
