Whiskey Tears
Whiskey Tears: A Heartache Symphony by Dierks Bentley
Lyrics
Therre's things in my life that I've been missin'
Reflecting on things missing in life
The touch of a woman, and lovin' after dark
Desiring intimacy and love in the night
Come here lately the woman I've been kissin'
Expressing recent romantic involvement
She comes from Kentucky boys, and she don't have a heart
Implying the woman lacks emotional attachment
Bartender, he don't mind, he sits 'em up the same
Barkeep serves drinks consistently
I ain't ben sober since it's over, got no plans to change
Continued intoxication post-relationship
I traded my tomorrows to remain in yesterday
Sacrificed future for past memories
Whiskey Tears are fallin' here and each one cries here name
Whiskey-induced tears linked to her name
I used to be so afraid of dyin'
Previously feared death, now coping with heartbreak
I lived every moment for lovin' her
Dedicated life to loving the departed woman
But when she walked away my heart quit tryin'
Heart stopped attempting after her departure
And now I'm no stranger to hurt
Adapted to the pain of heartbreak
Bartender, he don't mind, he sits 'em up the same
Consistent drink serving regardless of circumstances
I ain't been sober since it's over, got no plans to change
Maintaining intoxicated state after breakup
I traded my tomorrows to remain in yesterday
Chose past memories over future prospects
Whiskey Tears are fallin' here and each one cries here name
Tears caused by whiskey remind of her
Bartender, he don't mind, he sits 'em up the same
Continued consistency in drink service
Oh,whiskey Tears are fallin' here and each one cries here name
Whiskey-induced tears persistently associated with her
