[Verse] Bottle up the bourbon, let it pour like rain, Slide it down the counter, don’t ask me 'bout the pain, Every sip I take, another memory escapes, In this honky-tonk, we’re all tryin' to reshape. [Verse 2] Whiskey dreams 'bout night things, dancin’ through the haze, Neon lights a-flicker, drownin’ out the days, Keep ‘em coming, bartender, I need the courage strong, To look at the blonde in the corner all night long. [Chorus] Pour the spirits heavy, let the bottles clink, Line 'em up like soldiers, give me time to think, In this glass of amber, I’m far from home, In a sea of strangers, but I’m not alone. [Verse 3] Stir the memories lightly, mix ‘em with regret, Shaken by the heartache, but I ain’t finished yet, Another round of courage, in this whiskey haze, Tryin’ to keep it steady through the smoky maze. [Bridge] Lights are gettin' blurry, as the jukebox plays a tune, Midnight’s creepin' closer, under a silver moon, Every glance at her, a gamble I might take, But first I need another, for my heart’s sake. [Chorus] Pour the spirits heavy, let the bottles clink, Line 'em up like soldiers, give me time to think, In this glass of amber, I’m far from home, In a sea of strangers, but I’m not alone.
