Michael Peterson - When The Bartender Cries текст песни

This bar has been my home away from home
Use to be she wasn't missing me
Now she's moving in with her best fiend
And I'm the only one who wants what use to be

I'm here because today I lost it all
I didn't want to drink at home alone
And I just can't believe all my hopes and dreams
Are falling like a row of dominoes

I thought the man behind the bar had heard it all before
My story must have caught him by surprise
Cuz when he handed me my double there were tears in his eyes
You know you're in trouble when the bartender cries

He said last night you swore you'd never drink again
I said next time I"m really gonna try
So if she ever calls for me you can finally tell her he ain't here
It won't be a lie

I asked the man behind the bar what he'd been crying for
He said that bottle use to be a friend of mine
Now I've stopped drinking doubles but I pour them all of the time
Son you know your in trouble when the bartender cries

As I saw my own reflection staring back at me I knew
Every single word he said was true

Well I told the man behind the bar I thought I'd seen it all before
Til I saw the sadness in his eyes
That's when I put down my double and said my last goodbyes

You know you're in trouble when the bartender cries
Oh you know you're in trouble when the bartender cries
