[Verse] I held on tight to a love so untrue But it slipped through my hands like the morning dew Every promise they made fell apart But whiskey never broke my heart [Chorus] Oh it burns But it’s sweet It’s a fiery start Goes down smooth Doesn’t tear me apart When the world gets rough and lovers depart Whiskey never broke my heart [Verse 2] He said forever but meant just a while His words were sharp but they hid a sly smile Now I’ve got a bottle and a fresh new chart 'Cause whiskey never broke my heart [Chorus] Oh it burns But it’s sweet It’s a fiery start Goes down smooth Doesn’t tear me apart When the world gets rough and lovers depart Whiskey never broke my heart [Bridge] No empty promises in amber and gold It’s steady It’s honest It never grows cold While people will falter and lies leave their mark Whiskey never broke my heart [Chorus] Oh it burns But it’s sweet It’s a fiery start Goes down smooth Doesn’t tear me apart When the world gets rough and lovers depart Whiskey never broke my heart
