Bartender, don’t close up just yet,
I ain’t quite ready to forget.
She’s been gone for a couple years,
But nights like this still bring her near.
That laugh in the summer heat,
Barefoot dancing down Main Street.
We were fireflies and old love songs,
And somehow that’s where my heart still belongs.
So pour me one more round for the good times,
For that old porch swing and her hand in mine.
To sunset kisses and late-night drives,
And the way she made this town feel alive.
I ain’t drinkin’ to drown or to cry —
I’m drinkin’ to bring her back tonight.
Yeah, just for a while… in my mind,
One more round for the good times.
I still drive by that riverside,
Where we’d park and talk ‘til closing time.
The jukebox plays her favorite tune,
And for a moment, she’s back in the room.
We had our cracks, we had our falls,
But I’d trade it all for one last call.
To hear her laugh, to feel her near,
And hold her like the end was never here.
So pour me one more round for the good times,
For her cotton dress and her hand in mine.
To the way she’d smile with no shoes on,
Like the world was hers from dusk ‘til dawn.
I’m not drinkin’ to blur the past —
I’m drinkin’ to make the moment last.
Just for a while, let her cross my mind,
One more round for the good times.
I know she’s gone and life moves on,
But some loves still linger after they’re gone.
And tonight she’s here in the barlight glow,
In a barstool and a song I know.
So pour me one more round for the good times,
For the girl I lost and the reasons why.
To the way she loved without holding back —
I still see it all when the glass comes back.
I ain’t drinkin’ to say goodbye —
I’m drinkin’ to live it one more time.
Yeah, just for a while… she’s still mine,
One more round for the good times
