Lovesick Promises remix (Whiskey in the Wound)

[Intro] [Acoustic guitar picking, soft organ pads, brushed snare | 8 bars] [Verse 1] Standin in the rain outside that bar tonight I let the love of my whole life just slip from me Now I'm drinkin through the hurt I cain't unsee You said forever's just a word that wears you down But I felt every promise, every sound Echo in this empty heart that lost its way These lovesick promises still haunt my days [Pre-Chorus] I can feel safer when you're near Ghosts of you still whisper in my ear Even though you're gone the burnin remains Lovesick promises flow through my veins [Chorus] Lovesick promises lightin up my mind Even though you walked away you're still in my wine The hope we had just will not die Lovesick promises keep my soul alive I'm reachin through this bottle for your hand Hopin somehow you'll understand These lovesick promises I swore to you Are the only thang that feel true [Verse 2] Every time I close my eyes I see your face Shinin through the smokey room I cain't escape This heart is shattered but the fire survives Even in the quiet of this lonely night They say that lightnin never strikes the same place twice But what we had was more than playin with the dice That wild storm pullin us close still pulls me through Lovesick promises still point to you [Pre-Chorus] I can feel safer when you're near Ghosts of you still whisper in my ear Even though you're gone the burnin remains Lovesick promises flow through my veins [Chorus] Lovesick promises lightin up my mind Even though you walked away you're still in my wine The hope we had just will not die Lovesick promises keep my soul alive I'm reachin through this bottle for your hand Hopin somehow you'll understand These lovesick promises I swore to you Are the only thang that feel true [Bridge] If I could turn back time I'd keep every promise, every line But all I have are memories that hurt And lovesick promises ground in this dirt [Instrumental Solo] [Slide guitar cries, soulful bends, 16 seconds] [Final Chorus] Lovesick promises lightin up my mind Even though you walked away you're still in my wine The hope we had just will not die Lovesick promises keep my soul alive I'm reachin through this bottle for your hand Hopin somehow you'll understand These lovesick promises I swore to you Are the only thang that feel true [Outro] Lovesick promises… in this lonesome night… Lovesick promises… still burnin bright…
