Boo Hewerdine - Drinking Alone Lyrics

It's only you and no one else
That ugly bottle on the shelf
You'll soon be lying' to yourself
Drinking alone

You say it's only now and then
That you head to oblivion
Shipwrecked in a bottle again
Drinking alone

You're almost there but not quite yet
You took the pledge but with regret
Can't remember what you can't forget
Drinking alone

And when the morning comes
The morning always comes

What's your poison, here's a clue
The stereo is kind of blue
Traded out the hall for you
Drinking alone

Time moves slowly when you drown
The hourglass is upside down
Far too late to paint the town
Drinking alone

And when the morning comes
The morning always comes

It makes you wanna laugh out loud
Each time you think of that old crowd
You wonder what they're doin' now
Drinking alone

Drinking alone

Drinking alone

Drinking alone
