Bourbon bottle blooms
Reminding me of you
So I don’t let ‘em die
I keep that hope alive
Tell me is that abuse?
I don’t think that they’ve thrived
And neither have I
Spending all our lives
In bottle and blight
Because of you
And now I’m getting used
To life at a stronger proof
Just trying to survive
Struggling to strive
With my heart on the loose
Well it all came untied
From this loss and these lies
Spending all my time
In bottles and lines
And lighters too
And if I knew the things we grew would come to leave us
Is the truth if only, would I only
Come to let you down
Or follow thru to make sure nothing came between us?
Though I don’t know if you’d go.
And yeah I’ve heard it too
That you’ve found somebody new
So I won’t even try
All your love’s arrived
I just wish that you’d choose
To turn back the tide
Let it be you and I
Spending all our time
In love and light
Just for two
And if I knew the things we grew would come to leave us
Is the truth if only, would I only
Come to let you down
Or follow thru to make sure nothing came between us?
Though I don’t know if you’d stay, or run away
And if I knew the things we grew would come to leave us
Is the truth if only, would I only
Come to let you down
Or follow thru to make sure nothing came between us?
Though I don’t know if you’d go
Still these
Bourbon bottle blooms
Keep reminding me of you
So I don’t let em die
I keep that hope alive
Don’t you think that’s abuse?
Well I know they don’t thrive
And neither do I
Spending all our lives
In bottle and blight
Because of you
Spending all our lives in bottle and blight because of you.
