We were two heartbeats away From wedding rings and a pretty ballgown dress At the church off 40 West And we were talking ´bout our future on the steps Of your daddy´s screened in porch
That if I´d ask, you´d tell me, "yes" Well, it only took a month or so to be someone you used to know You didn´t really have to go, but you did And I´ve never been a somber soul But part of me ain´t here no more And I´ve been tryna find him ever since
So now I take my whiskey sour Sittin´ barside after hours Thinkin´ how can I get over if the love was never ours? Hell, I know you got my message All my X´s and my O´s And it kills me by the hour Now I take my whiskey sours alone
´Cause that one night under neon
Was the first time you ordered me one And you told me that you loved me But was it ever true? ´Cause your promises were empty Now I´m drinkin´ one too many Drowning out the memory of you
So now I take my whiskey sour Sitting barside after hours Thinking how can I get over if the love was never ours? Hell, I know you got my message All my X´s and my O´s And it kills me by the hour Now I take my whiskey sours
And I don´t know why I do it It´s supposed to help me through it
But it´s harder when it always tastes like you And every time I hit rock bottom I don´t know what I should do Should I call you up again or should I settle for round two?
And just take my whiskey sour Sitting barside after hours Thinking how can I get over if the love was never ours? Hell, I know you got my message All my X´s and my O´s And it kills me by the hour Now I take my whiskey sours alone
And it kills me by the hour Now I take my whiskey sour alone
