|
Tonight in a bar alone I'm sitting |
|
Apart from the laughter and the cheer |
|
While scenes from the past rise before me |
|
I'm watching the bubbles in my beer |
|
A vision of someone who loves me |
|
Brings along solty tears to my eyes |
|
So I know that my life's been a failure |
|
Just watching the bubbles in my beer |
|
[ steel - fiddle ] |
|
I'm seeing the road that I've travelled |
|
A road paved with heartaches and tears |
|
And I'm seeing the past that I've wasted |
|
While watching the bubbles in my beer |
|
As I think of the heart that I've broken |
|
And of the golden chances that have passed me by |
|
And the dreams that I had now are empty |
|
As empty as the bubbles in my beer |
