Cigarettes & Whiskey

Her coffee cup is still by the sink
her shoes still by the door, the light on
on that porch where you can’t seem to see her anymore 
the grass where she parked her car looks greener than it ever did, been six months since she left, and i’m still a wreck

cause have you ever had to tell a pretty girl goodbye, face yourself in the mirror just wonderin’ why
she ever left, was it that you didn’t like what you saw beneath my skin, how is this the situation we’re in? is this just how she was or was I just maybe a little too much
guess I’ll never know, you left me with just 
the dog and some whiskey 

that perfume she used to wear, damn, I smell it everywhere, it’s in the halls, like it’s damn near coming off the pictures still hangin’ on the wall
i’d give it all just to go back
but regret doesn’t work like that

have you ever had to tell a pretty girl goodbye, face yourself in the mirror just wonderin’ why
she ever left, was it that you didn’t like what you saw beneath my skin, how is this the situation we’re in? is this just how she was or was I just maybe a little too much
guess I’ll never know, you left me with just 
the dog and some whiskey 

I thought she’d stay right here with me in this town, but now I go out and look around
and it just doesn’t feel like home anymore 
the warmth is gone and I feel lost, a good thing gone wrong 

cause have you ever had to tell a pretty girl goodbye, face yourself in the mirror just wonderin’ why
she ever left, was it that you didn’t like what you saw beneath my skin, how is this the situation we’re in? is this just how she was or was I just maybe a little too much
guess I’ll never know, you left me with just 
the dog and some whiskey
