I wrote this last year and forgot Id recorded it. Rediscovered it whilst going through my BIAB library today so thought Id put it up.
A simple song about saying goodbye etc after a breakup
Whiskey And Rye (c) PMcNaught 2024 All tracks BIAB Vocals by yours truly Thank you for listening
LYRICS
In the dim-lit room, the bottle's almost dry Memories fading, as we say goodbye The whiskey burns, the tears they fall Heartache echoes through these empty walls
Whiskey and rye, the bitter taste of sorrow Lost in the haze of a long tomorrow In the shadows of a love gone by We drown our sorrows in whiskey and rye
The clock ticks on, the night grows cold Whispers of regret, stories untold Each sip a prayer, each drop a sigh We cling to each other, as the tears run dry
Whiskey and rye, the bitter taste of sorrow Lost in the haze of a long tomorrow In the shadows of a love gone by We drown our sorrows in whiskey and rye
The stars above, they seem to weep A lonesome tune, a promise to keep But in this moment, we find our peace In the arms of whiskey, our souls release
Whiskey and rye, the bitter taste of sorrow Lost in the haze of a long tomorrow In the shadows of a love gone by We drown our sorrows in whiskey and rye
