Whisky burns, my lips tonight Lonely hearts, dim bar light What am I, a shadow in your sight When I pour, another round When the night, drags me down Will my heart, ever be found? [chorus] Cigarette smoke, stinks up the air Tangled up, in these worn-out prayers street trash, just a blur As I sip, the pain away And I hope, you'll go away But I know, your here to stay [verse] The jukebox mourns, an old love song Every note, reminds me I went wrong Is it too late, for my soul to belong? As the hours, slowly fade In this dance, of night's charade your love, just invades [chorus] Cigarette smoke, stinks up the air Tangled up, in these worn-out prayers street trash, just a blur As I sip, the pain away And I hope, you'll go away But I know, your here to stay [bridge] Whisky burns, on my lips tonight Lonely hearts, in this dim bar light And I hope, you'll you go away But I know, your here to stay Every note, reminds me where I went wrong Is it too late, for my soul to belong? [chorus] Cigarette smoke, stinks up the air Tangled up, in these worn-out prayers street trash, just a blur As I sip, the pain away And I hope, you'll go away But I know, your here to stay
