[Verse]
Empty glass on the table floor's cold
They all left you like a story untold
But I stayed I stayed while the shadows rolled
[Chorus]
Whiskey ghosts they haunt me still
Your voice echoes where the nights stand still
You said no one cared no one tried
But I was there I was there by your side
[Verse 2]
You laughed but it cracked like a splintered tree
Said the bottle's a friend that won't ever leave
I wanted to scream but I let you be free
[Prechorus]
Why'd they all run
Why'd they all hide
I stayed with the sun
'Til it fell from the sky
[Chorus]
Whiskey ghosts they haunt me still
Your voice echoes where the nights stand still
You said no one cared no one tried
But I was there I was there by your side
[Bridge]
Last words you said still burn in my ear
"Guess it’s easier to lose than to hold someone near"
I held on tight but you slipped through my hands
Now you're a shadow where the silence stands
