Loving You Too Much

[Intro]
Oh, my sweet liquor, you’re my darkest friend
You steady my heartbeat when my day’s at the bend
In your warm glow, I forget who I am
But I know, darling, I can’t keep holding your hand

[Verse 1]
You’re the whisper in my whiskey, the solace in my gin
You drown out the silence, you soften the pain within
Every shot I take, it’s a love I can’t deny
But I fear one day, I might say goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I love your reckless charm, your wild embrace
But I know your love could leave a permanent trace
Tried to walk away, tried to leave you behind
Yet each time I fall back, I lose my mind

[Chorus]
Dear alcohol, I love you so much it hurts
You fill my soul with fire, but you leave me in dirt
You’re the sweetest poison, my broken heart’s best friend
But I gotta find a way, or this love will be my end

[Verse 2]
Late nights and broken dreams, you’re always on my mind
You’re the comfort in my sorrow, the cure I hope to find
You make me forget the world, make the pain feel small
But I know, I’m heading toward the downfall of us all

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I love your reckless charm, your wild embrace
But I know your love could leave a permanent trace
Tried to walk away, tried to leave you behind
Yet each time I fall back, I lose my mind

[Chorus]
Dear alcohol, I love you so much it hurts
You fill my soul with fire, but you leave me in dirt
You’re the sweetest poison, my broken heart’s best friend
But I gotta find a way, or this love will be my end

[Bridge]
Tonight I raise my glass to all we had
A love so fierce, so bitter, so mad
But I see the road ahead, cloudy and steep
Hanging onto you is a gamble I can't keep

[Outro]
Oh, my sweet liquor, I loved you true
But I can’t keep falling, that much is true
So here’s my goodbye, with tears in my eyes
Loving you forever, but I’ll say my goodbyes
