Lyrics
Drinkin’ In The Dark
by Brian Hazelbower and Robert (couch grouch) George
Night falls like a black hammer an I’m bound to askin why
It takes two to make love but just one to make love die
Cigar smoke floatin like a dove I, I pour myself a river
With a need to be reborn again this bottle can’t deliver
An I’m drinkin in the dark ya I know it’s a warnin’ sign
But those two fingers of tequila turn the pages of time
And I’m a reading every one til I get to where she broke my heart
An that’s where I find love is blind and why I’m drinkin in the dark
It’s lonely thoughts that live in the dead of night
Like regrets that rest by day find breath in fading light
And memories like museums with statues cold and stark
Where wax figures melt into tears her face hangs on my heart
An I’m drinkin in the dark ya I know it’s a warnin sign
But those two fingers of tequila turn the pages of time
And I’m reading every one til I get to where she broke my heart
An that’s where I find love is blind and why I’m drinkin in the dark
Ya I’m drinkin in the dark hell I know it’s a warnin sign
But those two fingers of tequila turn the pages of time
And I’m reading every one til I get to where she broke my heart
An that’s where I find love is blind and why I’m drinkin in the dark
Ya that’s where I find love is blind and why I’m drinkin,
drinkin the dark
