Tell Me.

Whisky helps me forget you At least for a minute or two But the smoke from this cigar Keeps sketching you across the dark Little ghost in every ring Every drag Another sting My glass is empty The bar is closed Still, your shadow won’t let go Tell me What would I do without you When the room spins, and the truth cuts through Where would you go without me Would you sleep Would you cry Would you breathe How can we live without us Just tear drops Heartbreak Headache Hush Darkness Lonely in this booth Me and my lies and your old truth Ashtray full of almosts Burnt ends of the words we chose I talk to your old lighter Like it might spark back your fire (oh) Staring at the cracked wood floor Waiting for you through that door But the only thing that walks in Is another round, and the wind Tell me What would I do without you When the room spins, and the truth cuts through Where would you go without me Would you laugh Would you dance Would you sing How can we live without us Just tear drops Heartbreak Headache Hush Darkness Lonely in this booth Me and my glass and your old truth I trace your name in the spill Watch it fade But you’re here still Every cough Every breath I take Draws your outline in the haze Tell me What would I do without you When the room spins, and the truth cuts through Where would you go without me Would you heal Would you hate Would you speak How can we live without us Just tear drops Heartbreak Headache Hush Darkness Lonely in this booth Whisky Cigars And the ghost of you
