"Living For The Night" lyrics - GEORGE STRAIT

GEORGE STRAIT
"Living For The Night"
(George Strait, Bubba Strait, Dean Dillon)

Everyday's a lifetime without you
Hard to get through
Since you've gone
So I do the only thing I know how to
To get by
I'm living for the night

I've drawn all the curtains in this old house
To keep the sun out
And off of my face
Friends stop by to check in 'cause I checked out
I tell 'em I'm fine
I'm just living for the night

[Chorus:]
Daylight can't hide the tears I cry
The pain that came with your goodbye
The memories that keep me out of sight
Every night I venture out into those neon arms that hold me tight
I'm living for the night

I'm a whole lot easier to talk to
When I've had a few
I settle down
The whiskey kills the man you turned me into
And I come alive
I'm living for the night

[Chorus]

I'm living for the night
Everyday's a lifetime without you
