Description

Hey there barkeep,
pour me a whiskey please,
a double would be fine,
liquid amnesia to
ease the pain
of a girl who
once was mine.....

Stay a minute
talk me through my blues,
though you've
heard it all before,
misery's always been
best friends with booze,
coming nightly
through your door...

She was perfection
I let slip away,
committment was the key,
she wanted marriage and a family,
but I could never make that leap....

It's been a year now
since she's been gone
but I can't shake her
from my mind,
aint no sense
in moving on,
she's not a girl
you leave behind...
how could I've
been so blind...
from a love that
I hoped to find
how could I have
been so blind....

Hey, there barkeep,
pour another round,
and leave the bottle too...
I'll just keep drinking
till it's time to pay
my sad and lonely blues....

She was perfection
I let slip away,
committment was the key,
she wanted marriage and a family,
but I couldn't make that leap....

It's been three years
since she's been gone
I still can't shake her
from my mind,
there aint no sense
in moving on,
she's not someone
that you leave behind...
Dear Lord, how could
I've been so blind...
to a love I'd hoped to find
how could I have
been so blind....
