Lyrics

Me and a bottle alone here tonight
Waxing poetic til morning light
I close my eyes, but sleep won’t come
It’s just me and a bottle when you’re gone
Me and a bottle to keep me warm

The air hangs heavy ‘neath the summer moon
But a winter chill runs through my bones
I take another drink, stare at the sky
Wish you were here by my side
Wish you were here by my side

It’s two weeks since you’re down the road
It’s two a.m. and I’m on my own
How many nights will I cry, wishing I
Was the one you were looking for?

The night drags on with wasted hours
I dwell upon our little wars
Another tale of love gone wrong
Me and a bottle now you’re gone
It’s just me and a bottle now you’re gone

It’s two weeks since you’re down the road
It’s two a.m. and I’m on my own
How many nights will I cry, wishing I
Was the one you were looking for?

It’s two weeks since you’re down the road
It’s two a.m. and I’m on my own
How many nights will I cry, sleep-deprived, wishing I
Was the one you were looking for?

The night drags on with wasted hours
I dwell upon our petty wars
Chalk up another love long gone
Empty the bottle and wait for dawn
Empty the bottle and wait for dawn
It’s just me and a bottle now you’re gone
