  • I never dreamed of wantin' more
    Than a small town, simple life
    A little money in our pockets
    You're my husband, I'm your wife

    But then I fell in icy water
    Standing in the grocery line
    I overheard my name and yours
    And one I did not recognize

    Now everything I thought I knew
    Is walking out the door
    There's a bottle on the table tellin' me
    The only thing I know for sure

    Is there's not a sound
    A sound as loud as silence
    There's not a blade sharper than a lie
    There's not a low lower than being
    The last one to know
    You got a brand new start with someone new
    And there's no whiskey stronger
    Than the truth

    You never think it'd be your story
    When you're pulling the wool off your eyes
    You know, you think you know somebody
    Then you don't and you don't know why

    Havin' me another won't make
    The clock rewind
    But I'm drinking every drop knowing what
    I'm looking for I'll never find

    There's not a sound
    A sound as loud as silence
    There's not a blade sharper than a lie
    There's not a low lower than being
    The last one to know oh, you got a brand new
    Start with someone new
    And there's no whiskey stronger
    Than the truth

    The only thing I can do
    Is pour a glass and pretend
    That this pain's gonna end

    There's not a sound
    A sound as loud as silence
    There's not a blade sharper than a lie
    There's not a low lower than being
    The last one to know oh, you got a brand new
    Start with someone new
    And there's no whiskey stronger
    Than the truth
    No, there's no whiskey stronger
