Why can't you love her soberly

[Verse 1] She comes home to neglect in the air. Empty bottles with no one who cares. The TV on while they're passed out on the floor. Next to liquor they'd rather adore. [Chorus] Love in a bottle Love in a glass They choose the liquor Always picking her last She screams and shouts She's just a kid, don't you see. Why can't you love her soberly. [Verse 2] Her mother's laugh's are hollow Her father's eye's are glazed The only love they show are hugs replaced by the smell of haze [Prechorus] Do you see her standing close to you Or just the liquor calling for you Love in a bottle Love in a glass They choose the liquor Always picking her last She screams and shouts. She's just a kid, don't you see. Why can't you love her soberly. [Bridge] The years roll by like tumbling dice Every shot comes with a price They don't see her hearts in pain Leaving her alone in the cold pouring rain [Chorus] Love in a bottle Love in a glass They choose the liquor Always picking her last She screams and shouts She's just a kid, don't you see. Why can't you love her soberly.
