Tonight the bottle let me down |
|
It let your memory come around |
|
The one true friend I thought I'd found |
|
Tonight the bottle let me down |
|
I've always had a bottle I could turn to |
|
And lately I've been turnin' every day |
|
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to |
|
And I'm hurtin' in old familiar ways |
|
Tonight the bottle let me down |
|
It let your memory come around |
|
The one true friend I thought I'd found |
|
Tonight the bottle let me down |
|
Each night I leave the bar room when it's over |
|
Not feeling any pain at closing time |
|
But tonight your memory found me much too sober |
|
I can't drink enough to keep you off my mind |
|
Tonight the bottle let me down |
|
It let your memory come around |
|
The one true friend I thought I'd found |
|
Tonight the bottle let me down |
