[Verse 1] The jukebox hums a lonesome tune, In this bar beneath the hazy moon. Neon lights flicker, a broken past, Tears settle at the bottom of my whiskey glass. [Chorus] I drink to forget, but it don’t erase, The shadows of love and your empty place. Every sip recalls what I can’t pass, Tears at the bottom of my whiskey glass. [Verse 2] This old barstool’s seen better days, Like my heart, it’s cracked and frayed. The barkeep knows my pain won’t last, Still, there’s tears at the bottom of my whiskey glass. [Chorus] I drink to forget, but it don’t erase, The shadows of love and your empty place. Every sip recalls what I can’t pass, Tears at the bottom of my whiskey glass. [Bridge] The clock ticks slow, but my sorrow’s fast, Each second drowning in what’s been amassed. The bottle whispers, but it doesn’t ask, Why there’s tears at the bottom of my whiskey glass. [Chorus] I drink to forget, but it don’t erase, The shadows of love and your empty place. Every sip recalls what I can’t pass, Tears at the bottom of my whiskey glass.
