Whiskey Soaked

Here it goes once again
It's taking control
It's strong like a disease
But moves like a bullet does
And floods all my senses
And when I try to resist
It clearly overwhelms all my natural defenses

So here I go again acting the fool
Slow and steady is right, but it's not what I do
I'm shaky and nervous
And she's so cool it scares me
Like this is just another day and we're acts in her circus

So what fortune is this
Can I ask you please make it more obvious
I know I have your attention
I know I'm worthy of mention
Where do we go from here
I'm trying to get over this tension

You know I dreamed that we kissed
But the problem with dreams is that they die with the morning mist
I'm so tired of pretending that this love has no ending
But it goes on and on I wish I didn't know you existed

So I light a candle for you and then I throw it in whiskey
I light a candle for you and then I throw it in whiskey
Then I watch blue flames reach for the sky
As I lose my grip on reality
I light a candle for you and then I throw it in whisky
Yeah

Oh so what fortune is this
Do I got this right or am I just oblivious
Cos your smile really fooled me
And I stupidly believed
You were in love like I was and you'd always be with me

You know I dreamed that we kissed
To me that was good as gold and I would surely make reality of this
So suddenly I fear, that your love disappeared
I figure I'm done, take me up now and do what you will to me

So I light a candle for you and then I throw it in whisky
I light a candle for you and then I throw it in whiskey
And then I watch blue flames go in the sky
Obscuring everything along the way
Then I make drawings of you
But now they're covered in whiskey yeah
And then I watch blue flames go in the sky
As I lose my grip on reality
Then I make drawings of you
But now they're covered in whiskey yeah
