Here we are again tonight at our corner table The girl behind the bar just dimmed the lights The jukebox plays an old country love song And I'm holding on to you with all my might Hey, bottle of whiskey She's long since been gone Her memory tends to be the kind that lingers on
You try to shake it off but here it comes again Hey, bottle of whiskey I thought you were my friend Now I'm holding on to you the way I held her Your face reflects the sadness in my eyes I see I'm singing to an empty bottle And the emptiness she left me deep inside.
