Blame It on the Whiskey

It wasn't the way you looked at me
Or how your voice brought me to my knees
It wasn't there when we shared a cigarette

It was hidin' in the corner when you took my hand
It might've been a song but it wasn't a dance
Everybody's watchin' but there's nothing to see
Nobody's thinkin' you should be with me

We can blame it on the whiskey
Blame it on the stillness of the night
If she's wonderin' why you're late tonight
With a glazed over look in your eyes
We won't tell her that you got it from me
We'll blame it on the whiskey

Buried in the shadows of a beauty queen
Livin' through her eyes vicariously
Wishin' that you would've given me her ring

Hangin' on the thought of what might've been
And I'm wonderin' if it'll happen again
Then I stumble out the bar and you're by your truck
And I can tell in your eyes that we're gonna

Blame it on the whiskey
Blame it on the stillness of the night
When she's wonderin' why you're late tonight
With a glazed over look in your eyes
We won't tell her that you got it from me
We'll blame it on the whiskey

And tomorrow I know
I'll be drinkin' alone
And when you ask me what's wrong
I'll just say

Blame it on the whiskey
I blame it on the stillness of the night
And if she's wonderin' why you're late tonight
With a stone cold sober look in your eyes
You won't tell her that you got it from me
You'll blame it on the whiskey

Go on and blame it on your whiskey
