Shot of whiskey sinkin’
And I always end up thinkin
‘Bout the reason for the drinkin’
And while I’m all alone on the floor
There’s a million reasons why
You couldn’t stay, you wouldn’t try
You told me not to cry
Just as you walked out the door
But I will get stronger
The days will grow longer
In time I’ll get over you
For now I’ve got a little bit of envy
That she’s getting all your attention
And I think I know where this is going
But you don’t know, you don’t know
That I am a little bit broken
And I’ve been looking for an omen
And now, I’m calling it, it’s over
‘Cause you don’t know, you don’t know
That what you want sounds a lot like me
I said “hello how’ve you been
I heard that you were moving in
Good to see your face again
We should get together more”
But what I really meant to say
Is “there is not a single day
That I don’t wish that you had stayed
Seeing you at all tears through my core”
But I will get stronger
The days will grow longer
In time I’ll get over you
For now I’ve got a little bit of envy
That she’s getting all your attention
And I think I know where this is going
But you don’t know, you don’t know
That I am a little bit broken
And I’ve been looking for an omen
And now, I’m calling it, it’s over
‘Cause you don’t know, you don’t know
That what you want sounds a lot like me
