  • Pull the shades, lock the door
    Drag your feet across the floor
    Memories hang in the hall

    Pull them down off the wall
    Now it's done, she is gone, long gone

    There's not enough whiskey in the world tonight
    Not enough whiskey for you to see the light
    Not enough whiskey to make it all alright
    It's time for you to say goodnight

    Find a match, light a smoke
    Then it hits you, there's no hope
    Steady hands start to shake for the hurt you can't take
    'Cause it's done, she is gone, long gone

    Not enough whiskey in the world tonight
    There's not enough whiskey for you to see the light
    Not enough whiskey to make it all alright
    It's time to say goodnight

    Tell yourself it's alright
    She'll be coming home tonight
    But you know that ain't true
    'Cause she's with someone new
    Blame yourself, but that ain't fair
    So pretend you don't care

    Pour the drinks, throw them back
    As your heart starts to crack
    Grab the phone, make the call
    As the tears start to fall

    But it's done, she is gone, long gone

    Not enough whiskey in the world tonight
    There's not enough whiskey for you to see the light
    There's not enough whiskey to make it all alright
    It's time for you to say goodnight

    Not enough whiskey in the world tonight
    There's not enough whiskey to make it all alright
    It's time to say goodnight Writer/s: Jude Cole, Kiefer Sutherland
