Backstory:
This is my newest one... a song about my 2 favorite things.. love and whiskey (kidding!)
But... this is sad enough that it makes me not want either for a while.
Lyrics:
I should have known you were going to be
too hard to hold
When I saw you drinking doubles
in an empty bar
You were staring at the bottom of your glass
like it broke your soul
So I knew buying you another
wouldn’t get me far
When I sat down
you didn’t say a word
I ordered something strong
Thinking “this one’s gonna hurt”
This ain’t going down smooth
Its always harder than I think and it burns hot
A bit too much too soon
We’re gonna find out just how tough I’m not
Don’t waste my time with white wine, it’s not that kinda buzz
And beer ain’t get me numb enough
God help me this is gonna be
A whiskey kind of love
Every day and night after that one
was just a blur (alternate lyric: Left me in a daze)
Flying high in a love
that felt better than it should
And I knew I was digging a hole
that would be my grave
But I was in too deep to climb out
even if I could
When you packed your things
you didn’t say a word
I poured me something strong,
cause this was gonna hurt
This ain’t going down smooth
Its always harder than I think and it burns hot
A bit too much too soon
We’re gonna find out just how tough I’m not
My buddies say i’m better off, but the truth is i’m not sure
Why I’m missing you or missing what it was
God help me this was gonna be
God help me, this was always gonna be
God help me and set me free from
A whiskey kind of love
A whiskey kind of love
