The creaking of the chains on the front porch swing
Got me missing 'bout everything, but
I wish you were still sitting there
With me holding you
Like I used to do
Echo in the fade of the highway wind
Gets to me 'bout every time 'cause
I'm back in a memory
Hit the gravel dust and what's left of us
That barbed wire
Whippoorwill singing
Your goodbye stinging in the lipstick
Sundown, sinking, I'm hurting, I'm drinking
Sitting here throwing empty beers
Watching as the world goes black
Missing you
Getting drunk and blue
To a twelve pack soundtrack
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
The way you'd been spinning in the summer night breeze
Saying will you dance with me 'til
The rain hit on the old tin roof
Then we stopped to kiss
Drunk on your lips
I remember you halfway gone
Slow swinging, you were holding on
Oh, girl if I'd only known
I'd never would have left that song
Would have let it play on and on
That barbed wire
Whippoorwill singing
Your goodbye stinging in the lipstick
Sundown, sinking, I'm hurting, I'm drinking
Sitting here throwing empty beers
Watching as the world goes black
Missing you
Getting drunk and blue
To a twelve pack soundtrack
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
I remember you halfway gone
Slow swinging, you were holding on
Oh, girl if I'd only known
I'd never would have left that song
Would have let it play on and on
That barbed wire
Whippoorwill singing
Your goodbye stinging in the lipstick
Sundown, sinking, I'm hurting, I'm drinking
Sitting here throwing empty beers
Watching as the world goes black
Missing you
Getting drunk and blue
To a twelve pack soundtrack
(Yea-ea-eah)
I'm still missing you
Getting drunk and blue
To a twelve pack soundtrack
