WE PASS IN THE HALL ON OUR WAY TO SEPARATE ROOMS
THE ONLY TIME WE'LL EVER TALK IS WHEN THE MONTHLY BILLS ARE DUE
WE GO TO WORK, WE GO TO CHURCH
WE FAKE A PERFECT LIFE
I PASSED THE POINT OF GIVING A DAMN
ALL MY TEARS ARE CRIED
WE CAN JUST GO ON LIKE THIS
OR SAY THE WORD, WE'LL CALL IT QUITS
BABY, YOU CAN GO OR YOU CAN STAY
BUT I WANNA LOVE YOU EITHER WAY
IT'S BEEN SO LONG SINCE I'VE FELT
ANYTHING INSIDE THESE WALLS
YOU CAN'T HEAL, YOU CAN'T HURT?
WHEN YOU DON'T FEEL AT ALL
I USED TO CRY AND STAY UP NIGHTS
AND WONDER WHAT WENT WRONG
IT'S BEEN HARD
BUT HEARTS CAN ONLY DO THAT FOR SO LONG
WE CAN'T JUST GO ON LIKE THIS
SAY THE WORD, WE'LL CALL IT QUITS
BABY, YOU CAN GO OR YOU CAN STAY
I WANNA LOVE YOU EITHER WAY
WE CAN'T JUST GO ON LIKE THIS
SAY THE WORD, WE'LL CALL IT QUITS
BABY, YOU CAN GO OR YOU CAN STAY
BUT I WANNA LOVE YOU EITHER WAY

THERE'S A BOTTLE ON THE DRESSER BY YOUR RING
AND IT'S EMPTY SO RIGHT NOW I DON'T FEEL A THING
I'LL BE HURTING WHEN I WAKE UP ON THE FLOOR
BUT I'LL BE OVER IT BY NOON
THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHISKEY AND YOU
COME TOMORROW, I CAN WALK IN ANY STORE
IT AIN'T A PROBLEM, THEY'LL ALWAYS SELL ME MORE
BUT YOUR FORGIVENESS
WELL, THAT'S SOMETHING I CAN'T BUY
THERE AIN'T A THING THAT I CAN DO
THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHISKEY AND YOU
ONE'S THE DEVIL, ONE KEEPS DRIVING ME INSANE
AT TIMES I WONDER IF THEY AIN'T BOTH THE SAME
BUT ONE'S A LIAR THAT HELPS TO HIDE ME FROM MY PAIN
AND ONE'S THE LONG GONE BITTER TRUTH
THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHISKEY AND YOU
I'VE GOT A PROBLEM BUT IT AIN'T LIKE WHAT YOU THINK
I DRINK BECAUSE I'M LONESOME AND I'M LONESOME 'CAUSE I DRINK
BUT IF I DON'T BREAK DOWN AND BRING IT ON MYSELF
IT'LL HIT OUT OF THE BLUE
THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHISKEY AND YOU
ONE'S THE DEVIL, ONE KEEPS DRIVING ME INSANE
AT TIMES I WONDER, OH IF THEY AIN'T BOTH THE SAME
BUT ONE'S A LIAR THAT HELPS TO HIDE ME FROM MY PAIN
AND ONE'S THE LONG GONE BITTER TRUTH
THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHISKEY AND YOU
AH, THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHISKEY AND YOU
