Whiskey & Memory Lane

[Chorus] Another glass, the night is deep Secrets that the shadows keep This lonely bar, my only friend Where broken memories transcend Yeah, the whiskey burns, but the pain is numb Waiting for a dawn that will never come [Verse] Flickering neon, a hazy glow Faces I don't really know Each clinking glass, a distant chime Lost in the echoes of lost time The bartender wipes the counter clean Another lonely, quiet scene [Pre-Chorus] I trace the rim, a silent plea For someone who used to be Right here beside me, warm and true Now just a ghost I'm drinking to [Chorus] Another glass, the night is deep Secrets that the shadows keep This lonely bar, my only friend Where broken memories transcend Yeah, the whiskey burns, but the pain is numb Waiting for a dawn that will never come [Bridge] Remember laughter, summer rain? Now just this ache, this constant strain We built a castle, strong and tall Watched it crumble, watched it fall Each sip a story, bittersweet On this forgotten, empty street [Verse] The music plays a mournful tune Beneath the pale and distant moon A photograph inside my mind The love we left so far behind I try to shake it, let it go But the undertow just pulls me low [Pre-Chorus] I trace the rim, a silent plea For someone who used to be Right here beside me, warm and true Now just a ghost I'm drinking to [Chorus] Another glass, the night is deep Secrets that the shadows keep This lonely bar, my only friend Where broken memories transcend Yeah, the whiskey burns, but the pain is numb Waiting for a dawn that will never come [Outro]
