Don't Need The Whiskey

(album: Timeless - 2020)

Here's what I know sober
You meant every word of over
That door slamming was all the closure that I need
Ain't no more you and me
We're just a ghost town
The population closed down
And you would think by now I'd know the difference
Between the truth and the whiskey wishing

Yeah, I don't need no neon sign
Telling me 'bout the chance I got
I'll buy the lie, but it don't mean jack
I don't need the whiskey to tell me that
You're fast-lane changing your mind
You'll be here by closing time
You'll walk right in and take me back
I don't need the whiskey to tell me that
Don't need no whiskey

I don't need the headache of another midnight mistake
Telling me this heartache can't be healed
But we both know it ain't real
So I ain't touching downtown
The show won't close no bar down
'Cause all I know is right now

Yeah, I don't need no neon sign
Telling me 'bout the chance I got
I'll buy the lie, but it don't mean jack
I don't need the whiskey to tell me that
You're fast-lane changing your mind
You'll be here by closing time
You'll walk right in and take me back
I don't need the whiskey to tell me that
Yeah, the whiskey to tell me

Yeah, I don't need no neon sign
Telling me 'bout the chance I got
'Cause I'll buy the lie, but it don't mean jack
'Cause I don't need the whiskey to tell me that
You're fast-lane changing your mind
You'll be here by closing time
You'll walk right in and take me back
I don't need the whiskey to tell me that

No, I don't need no whiskey to tell me that

Yeah, I don't need the whiskey to tell me
The whiskey to tell me, tell me that
I don't need the whiskey to tell me that
