Miss You Cause I'm Drinking

(album: This Is The Heavy - 2022)

Don't get it twisted if I
Start reminiscing, nah
That ain't my mission tonight

My heart ain't broken, but
This bottle opened
A sugar-coated moment in time

Back when you and I were a-okay
I coulda swore I threw that memory away

Just so you know, girl
I ain't drinking, 'cause I miss you
I miss you 'cause I'm drinking
Gonna blame it on the 90-proof
It's the Maker's fault, I'm thinking
Thinking 'bout us and what might've been
I might be drunk but I still know the difference
I ain't drinking 'cause I miss you
I miss you 'cause I'm drinking

I wasn't hurting 'til I started sipping bourbon
Now Kentucky's started stirring the past
I just came here for a good time
How the hell did you get back on my mind?

In the morning, I'll be just fine
Thought I was doing better, but for the record

Just so you know, girl
I ain't drinking 'cause I miss you
I miss you 'cause I'm drinking
Gonna blame it on the 90-proof
It's the Maker's fault, I'm thinking
Thinking 'bout us and what might've been
I might be drunk but I still know the difference
I ain't drinking 'cause I miss you
I miss you 'cause I'm drinking

I miss you, I miss you so bad

I coulda swore I threw that memory away
But I guess liquor likes to hit replay

Just so you know, girl
I ain't drinking 'cause I miss you
I miss you 'cause I'm drinking
Gonna blame it on the 90-proof
It's the Maker's fault, I'm thinking
Thinking 'bout us and what might've been
I might be drunk but I still know the difference
I ain't drinking 'cause I miss you
I miss you 'cause I'm drinking
I ain't drinking 'cause I miss you
I miss you 'cause I'm drinking
