Drunk by noon on new years day
In the hills outside of town, some place
With the smoke and the wine
And a stranger’s eyes
Smoke and the wine and the whiskey don’t mix
Shaking so bad, think I’m gonna be sick
Buy another scotch as I head to the door
And it won’t make me better, but I want to make sure
Hold me close
I love you more than you know
And I step outside
I drank away all of my fears and my doubts
Stole away hearts from town to town
Now the things I fear come back here
I feel the cold ground underneath my boots
And for no good reason, it reminds me of you
Never made good, though I tried and I tried
So, I turn back around and walk inside
Hold me close
I love you more than you know
Hold me close
I love you more than you know
And that won’t make things right
