Drinking Again - 2002 Remastered Version
Ooh, it's almost two
Then sitting here wishing that I could see you
That's why I'm drinking again
And thinking of when you loved me
I'm having a few, and wishing that you were here
I'm making the rounds, and buying the rounds, for strangers
Yes, I'm being a fool, just hoping that you'll appear
Sure I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But who's gonna laugh, who's gonna laugh at a broken heart
That's why it's better, drinking again
And thinking of when you left
Me
Can't you see I'm trying to make it on home
And ain't got nothing but a memory
Maybe I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But, who's got the nerve, the nerve to laugh at my broken heart
That's why it's better drinking again
And thinking of when you left
Me
I'm trying to make it up to home
With just a memory
I know you heard me the first time
I said I'm trying to make it on home
And ain't got nothing, nothing but a memory
Then sitting here wishing that I could see you
That's why I'm drinking again
And thinking of when you loved me
I'm having a few, and wishing that you were here
I'm making the rounds, and buying the rounds, for strangers
Yes, I'm being a fool, just hoping that you'll appear
Sure I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But who's gonna laugh, who's gonna laugh at a broken heart
That's why it's better, drinking again
And thinking of when you left
Me
Can't you see I'm trying to make it on home
And ain't got nothing but a memory
Maybe I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But, who's got the nerve, the nerve to laugh at my broken heart
That's why it's better drinking again
And thinking of when you left
Me
I'm trying to make it up to home
With just a memory
I know you heard me the first time
I said I'm trying to make it on home
And ain't got nothing, nothing but a memory
