Pour Me
Heartbreak in a Glass: Doug Seegers' Pour Me Reveals the Pain of Lost Love
Lyrics
Pour me another strong one, my baby just walked in the door
Seeking another drink because the singer's partner just entered
Tearing out my heart with her new love as she waltzes across that floor
Expressing emotional pain as the partner dances with someone new
Pour me another quick one I can't take this misery
Requesting more alcohol to cope with the distress
Lucky him, lovely her, Pour me
Noting the happiness of the partner and her new love, contrasting with the singer's misery
Pour me another sad one, I'm swallowing my pity
Consuming drinks to suppress feelings of self-pity
Cause tonight she looks so pretty, satisfied
Admiring the partner's beauty despite the pain
Pour me a shot of courage, I'm gonna ask him to his face
Desiring courage to confront the new lover
How it feels to steal my woman from my side
Expressing the hurt of having the partner taken away
Pour me another double cause I'm single once again
Turning to more drinks after becoming single again
Pour me and leave my bottle cause I'm losing my only friend
Feeling isolated as the singer loses their only companion
Bartender keep on pouring til I'm blind til I can't see
Asking the bartender to keep serving until the pain is numbed
Lucky him, lovely her, Pour me
Reiterating the contrast between the partner's happiness and the singer's sorrow
Pour me another double cause I'm single once again
Repeating the feeling of being single and turning to more alcohol
Pour me and leave my bottle cause I'm losing my only friend
Emphasizing the loss of the only friend through drinking
Bartender keep on pouring til I'm blind til I can't see
Continuing to ask for more drinks to dull the pain
Lucky him, lovely her, Pour me
Highlighting the contrast between the partner's happiness and the singer's despair
I used to dance with my darling now I'm just her used to be
Reflecting on past happiness with the partner, now relegated to memories
Lucky him, lovely her, Pour me
Reiterating the contrast between the partner's happiness and the singer's sorrow
Pour me another strong one
Requesting another drink to cope with the ongoing pain
