Whitesnake - Lonely Days, Lonely Nights

(coverdale)
I've been burning my bridges
For too many years,
Drowning the sorrow
Of too many tears
Women and whiskey
Are my only friends,
One gives me strength,
One just pretends
I've been waiting my whole life
For things to work out right,
But, those lonely days turn into lonely nights
Yes, it do
I've heard all the wisdom
Of prophets and seers,
It don't soothe my passion
And it don't ease my fears
