The Bottle
I loved her I left her I came back all broken again
After each drink now I force myself to count to ten
Even if you saw her you wouldn't know her
She lives in the shadows of every dark place that you've been
Now she's just a girl and I'm just a friend
Liquor oh liquor don't you let me get sicker
I only came looking for help
Sorrow oh sorrow don't you be here tomorrow
I can barely just deal with myself
Lonely oh lonely why couldn't you have told me
That even lonely will leave
Mother dear mother there ain't any other
Won't you just give me one chance to breathe
Mother dear mother won't you just give me one chance to breathe
I've met every bar stool and swung every bar maid in town
I've ended the night with the bottle and me on the ground
All I want's a life boat with no holes I don't want to drown
I'd give everything up if I could just be with her now
Liquor oh liquor don't you let me get sicker
I only came looking for help
Sorrow oh sorrow don't you be here tomorrow
I can barely just deal with myself
Lonely oh lonely why couldn't you have told me
That even lonely will leave
Mother dear mother there ain't any other
Won't you just give me one chance to breathe
Mother dear mother won't you just give me one chance to breathe
After each drink now I force myself to count to ten
Even if you saw her you wouldn't know her
She lives in the shadows of every dark place that you've been
Now she's just a girl and I'm just a friend
Liquor oh liquor don't you let me get sicker
I only came looking for help
Sorrow oh sorrow don't you be here tomorrow
I can barely just deal with myself
Lonely oh lonely why couldn't you have told me
That even lonely will leave
Mother dear mother there ain't any other
Won't you just give me one chance to breathe
Mother dear mother won't you just give me one chance to breathe
I've met every bar stool and swung every bar maid in town
I've ended the night with the bottle and me on the ground
All I want's a life boat with no holes I don't want to drown
I'd give everything up if I could just be with her now
Liquor oh liquor don't you let me get sicker
I only came looking for help
Sorrow oh sorrow don't you be here tomorrow
I can barely just deal with myself
Lonely oh lonely why couldn't you have told me
That even lonely will leave
Mother dear mother there ain't any other
Won't you just give me one chance to breathe
Mother dear mother won't you just give me one chance to breathe
