Whiskey Lullabies

Another sleepless night, wide awake
Memories flood my restless mind

All the chances we didn't take
And the love we left behind
Your scent still lingers here with me
Like a whisper from the past
An empty feeling, an empty glass, a forever that didn't last

Now the only sound that soothes my soul
Is the ice against this glass
I pour another whiskey, let it flow
Trying to forget, but it won't go

Whiskey lullabies, Tears in my eyes
I'm drowning in this sorrow you left me in
Tonight the bottle rocks me to sleep
As these painful memories creep
Whiskey lullabies, tears in my eyes

These walls are closing in
Reminiscing of all the dreams and might-have-beens

Alcohol distorting what we coulda had
Why the hell were we so damn mad

My feelings still fill this space
As I drink to chase
You

Whiskey lullabies, Tears in my eyes
I'm drowning in this sorrow you left me in
Tonight the bottle rocks me to sleep
As these painful memories creep
Whiskey lullabies, tears in my eyes

But the drink won't numb the ache
Of the steps we failed to take

No matter how many I've had

So I'll keep pouring
Keep drinking
Emptiness take over
I can't do this sober

Whiskey lullabies, tears in my eyes
I'm drowning in the sorrow you left me in
The bottle's all I have tonight
Singing me whiskey lullabies, bitter goodbyes
These whiskey lullabies, I cry, I cry
Goodbye
