  • We were two heartbeats away
    From wedding rings and a pretty ballgown dress
    At the church off 40 West
    And we were talking 'bout our future on the steps
    Of your daddy's screened in porch
    That if I'd ask, you'd tell me, "Yes"

    Well, it only took a month or so to be someone you used to know
    You didn't really have to go, but you did
    And I've never been a somber soul
    But part of me ain't here no more
    And I've been tryna find him ever since

    So now I take my whiskey sour
    Sittin' barside after hours
    Thinkin' how can I get over if the love was never ours?
    Hell, I know you got my message
    All my X's and my O's
    And it kills me by the hour
    Now I take my whiskey sours alone

    'Cause that one night under neon
    Was the first time you ordered me one
    And you told me that you love me
    But was it ever true?
    'Cause your promises were empty
    Now I'm drinking one too many
    Drowning out the memory of you

    So now I take my whiskey sour
    Sittin' barside after hours
    Thinkin' how can I get over if the love was never ours?
    Hell, I know you got my message
    All my X's and my O's
    And it kills me by the hour
    Now I take my whiskey sours

    And I don't know why I do it
    It's supposed to help me through it
    But it's harder when it always tastes like you
    And every time I hit rock bottom
    I don't know what I should do
    Should I call you up again or should I settle for round two?

    And just take my whiskey sour
    Sittin' barside after hours
    Thinkin' how can I get over if the love was never ours?
    Hell, I know you got my message
    All my X's and my O's
    And it kills me by the hour
    Now I take my whiskey sours alone

    And it kills me by the hour
    Now I take my whiskey sours alone Writer/s: Adam Craig, Jaxson Free, Josh Hoge
