lyrics

What do you do when the whisky is gone?
Do you sit beside the telephone wondering what the hell went wrong.
You’re alone now, and this place is shutting down.
Bartender, pour me just one more song.
I need to find the means and strength to carry on.
Cause I’m alone now, and this place is shutting down.
Bartender, pour me a song.

If I told you I loved you, would you do the same?
If I told you I needed you, would you turn away?
This road never looked so worn never felt so torn.
Way back when will never be again when a friend was always more than a friend,
but those days are gone now,
and this place is shutting down.

What do you do when the whisky is gone?
Do you sit beside the telephone wondering what the hell went wrong.
You’re alone now, and this place is shutting down.
Bartender, pour me just one more song.
I need to find the means and strength to carry on.
Cause I’m alone now, and this place is shutting down.
Bartender, pour me a song.

This road never looked so worn.
These jeans never felt so torn.
I’m fading away to ashes, to ashes.
I remember when there was a time.
Love was so sublime.
I’m fading away to ashes, to ashes.

If I told you I loved you, would you do the same?
If I told you I needed you, would you turn away?
Save me from this mess I’m in.
When the whisky’s gone and we’re out of gin.
If forever meant never, you were too right.
If only I could hold you for one more night.
Save me from this mess I’m in.
When the whisky’s gone and we’re out of gin.

What do you do when the whisky’s gone?
And you sit beside the telephone wondering what the hell went wrong?
You’re alone now, and this place is shutting down.
Bartender, please pour me one more song.
I need to find the means and the strength to carry on.
Cause I’m alone now, and this place is shutting down.
Bartender, pour me, please just pour me a song.
