Drink You Away

Bittersweet thing, could this be a dream

Or just the same nightmare that keeps me awake?

Feel it in my brain, tall shot of pain

Pour a little out now for the love that we've made

I feel it the morning, you're still here in the morning

I see you, but you're gone, telephone the doctor, I'm not okay

The bottom of the bottle to fill this empty heart up

A thousand proof don't change the truth, I dive in, but I can't

I can't drink you away

I've tried Jack, I've tried Jim

I've tried all of their friends

But I can't drink you away

All these rocks, I can't swim

Outta this skin I'm livin' in

Say, now tell me, baby

Don't they make a medicine for heartbreak?

Tell me baby, oh yeah

Now, don't they make a medicine for heartbreak?

Got that poundin' on my brain, so I drowned it away

When the sun comes up tomorrow, you can find me doin' the same

'Cause I just can't forget, the way we turned out this bad

And now the only thing that sleeps here is a ghost of you instead

And then I feel it the morning, uh, you're still here in the morning

I see you, but you're gone, telephone the doctor, I'm not okay

The bottom of the bottle, uh, to fill this empty heart up

A thousand proof don't change the truth, I dive in, but I can't

I can't drink you away

I've tried Jack, I've tried Jim

I've tried all of their friends

But I can't drink you away (no, I can't)

All these rocks, I can't swim

Outta this skin I'm livin' in

Say, now tell me, baby

Don't they make a medicine for heartbreak?

Tell me, baby, one time, come on

Don't they make a medicine for heartbreak?

Break it down

I can't drink you

No, I can't drink you away, away

I can't drink you

I can't drink you away, away

I can't drink you

I can't drink you away, away

No, I can't, uh, drink you

No, I can't drink you away

I can't drink you away, uh

I've tried Jack, I've tried Jim

I've tried all of their friends

But I can't drink you away (no, I can't)

All these rocks, I can't swim

Outta this skin I'm livin' in

Say, so tell me baby

Don't they make a medicine for heartbreak? Don't they? Don't they? Tell me, baby

Tell me baby, one time

Now don't they make a medicine for heartbreak? Yeah

Oh yeah, tell me baby

Can't they make a medicine for my heartbreak? Heartbreak

Tell me baby

Can't they make a medicine for my heartbreak?

'Cause I can't drink you away, uh

I've tried Jack, I've tried Jim

I've tried all of their friends

I can't drink you away

All these rocks, I can't swim

Outta this skin I'm livin' in
