Whiskey Whispers

Oh, the nights so long, sugar It's stretched away too far Someday, steel strings will play all through it, honey Just hummin' where the wild tunes are [Verse] You know I'm blue, blue hearted, darlin' I'm blue from your fiery gaze And I'm trapped in this smoky bar room (so smoky) Playin' those chords to mend shattered days Swaying to the soulful rhythm, honey Just drowning where the sad notes blaze [Verse] I feel that sting, that blues bitten morning Lost in the shadow of your blaze Lights flicker low, low in this corner booth Whiskey whispers, tell the bitter truth A melody cries under velvet skies In every note, a piece of me dies [Verse] My hands on the keys, stained with my woes Paintin' sorrows only the heart knows
