Drink You Away
Bittersweet thingCould this be a dreamOr just the same nightmare that keeps me awake?Feel it in my brainA tall shot of painPour a little out now for the love that we've made.
I feel it in the morningYou’re still here in the morningI see you but you're goneTelephone the doctor: "I’m not okay!"The bottom of the bottleTo fill this empty heart upA thousand proofDon’t change the truthI tried it but I can’t.
[Chorus:]I can’t drink you awayI’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried JimI’ve tried all of their friendsBut I can’t drink you awayAll these rocksI can’t swim out of this skinI'm living inSayNow tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break, ooh?Tell me, baby, oh, yeah, now don't they make a medicine for heart break?
Got a pounding on my brainSo I drowned it awayWhen the sun comes up tomorrow you can find me doing the same'Cause I just can’t forgetThe way we turned out this badAnd now the only thing that sleeps here is a ghost of you instead.
I feel it in the morning.You’re still here in the morningI see you but you're goneTelephone a doctor: I’m not okayThe bottom of the bottleTo fill this empty heart upA thousand proofDon’t change the truthI tried it but I can’t.
[Chorus:]I can’t drink you awayI’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried JimI’ve tried all of their friendsBut I can’t drink you awayAll these rocksI can’t swim out of this skinI'm living inSayNow tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break, ooh?Tell me, baby, one time, c'mon, don't they make a medicine for heart break?
Break it down.
I can’t drink you, no, I can’t drink you away, awayI can’t drink you, I can’t drink you away, awayI can’t drink you, I can’t drink you away, awayOh, I can’t drink you, no, I can’t drink you away, away.
[Chorus:]I can’t drink you awayI’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried JimI’ve tried all of their friendsBut I can’t drink you awayAll these rocksI can’t swim out of this skinI'm living inSaySo tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break (don't they, don't they, tell me, baby)?Oh, tell me baby, one time, don't they make a medicine for heart break, yeah?
Oh, yeah, tell me, baby, can't they make a medicine for my heart break, heart break?Tell me, baby, yeah, can't they make a medicine for my heart break?
I can’t drink you awayI’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried JimI’ve tried all of their friendsBut I can’t drink you awayAll these rocksI can’t swim out of this skinI'm living in.
