WHISKEY HIGHWAY

Lonely road distant love
Long and hard highways difficult times
A future that ain't written yet
A past that brings good memories
A present full of hope

Difficult times impossible loves
Only time will tell the answer
Or maybe time heals everything except lost love

This old highway's my only friend
Another long night that never ends
Headlights painting lines on the asphalt
Trying to forget what I still recall

So I'll take a sip of this old whiskey
To smooth my throat and numb the feeling
Ain't no time for crying now
Just celebrating the joy somehow
Photographs inside my mind
Of a love I thought would stand the test of time
Empty passenger seat by my side
Just me and this relentless ride

So I'll take a sip of this old whiskey
To smooth my throat and numb the feeling
Ain't no time for crying now
Just celebrating the joy somehow

Pour me another one, please
I'll drown this pain right in my chest
With alcohol and good old music
Until the next love comes and steals it all again

Maybe tomorrow the Sun will shine brighter
Maybe this heavy heart will feel lighter
For now, this whiskey and this old guitar
Are healing these wounds, however far

So I'll take a sip of this old whiskey
To smooth my throat and numb the feeling
Ain't no time for crying now
Just celebrating the joy somehow

Until the next love comes
And steals it all again
