Drinking Again
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, it's almost two
Been sitting here wishing
That I could see you
That's why I'm drinkin again
And thinking of when you loved me
I'm having a few
And wishing that you were here
I'm making the rounds
And buying the rounds for strangers
Yes, I'm being a fool
Just hoping that you'll appear
Sure I can borrow a smoke
Maybe tell some joker a joke
But who's gonna laugh, who's gonna laugh
At a broken heart
Oh, my heart is aching, I swear its breaking.
That's why it's better drinkin' again
And thinking of when you left me
Can't you see I'm tryin to make it on home
And ain't got nothing but a memory
Maybe I can borrow a smoke
Maybe tell some joker a joke
But who's got the nerve
The nerve to laugh at my broken heart
That's why it's better drinkin' again
And thinking of when you left me
I'm tryin to make it on home
With just a memory
I know you heard me the first time
'Im tryin to make it on home
And ain't got nothing, nothing but a memory
