Blame It on the Whiskey

It wasn't the way you looked at me Or how your voice brought me to my knees It wasn't there when we shared a cigarette It was hidin' in the corner when you took my hand It might've been a song but it wasn't a dance Everybody's watchin' but there's nothing to see Nobody's thinkin' you should be with me We can blame it on the whiskey Blame it on the stillness of the night If she's wonderin' why you're late tonight With a glazed over look in your eyes We won't tell her that you got it from me We'll blame it on the whiskey Buried in the shadows of a beauty queen Livin' through her eyes vicariously Wishin' that you would've given me her ring Hangin' on the thought of what might've been And I'm wonderin' if it'll happen again Then I stumble out the bar and you're by your truck And I can tell in your eyes that we're gonna Blame it on the whiskey Blame it on the stillness of the night When she's wonderin' why you're late tonight With a glazed over look in your eyes We won't tell her that you got it from me We'll blame it on the whiskey And tomorrow I know I'll be drinkin' alone And when you ask me what's wrong I'll just say Blame it on the whiskey I blame it on the stillness of the night And if she's wonderin' why you're late tonight With a stone cold sober look in your eyes You won't tell her that you got it from me You'll blame it on the whiskey Go on and blame it on your whiskey
