Words and Music by Brent Godfrey and Mark Weeks
lyrics
When you left me
I could not sleep
When you left me
You knocked me off my feet
Whiskey, vodka, beer, and gin
Are to blame for the shape I’m in
But, you’re the reason I fell apart
Yeah, you’re the reason for my broken heart
Thought I could forget you
With some help from my friends
But I’ll never forget you
Until I reach my end
Whiskey, vodka, beer, and gin
Are to blame for the shape I’m in
But, you’re the reason I fell apart
Yeah, you’re the reason for my broken heart
Still hope you’ll come back
To put an end to my pain
Still hope you’ll come back
Before I go insane
I could not sleep
When you left me
You knocked me off my feet
Whiskey, vodka, beer, and gin
Are to blame for the shape I’m in
But, you’re the reason I fell apart
Yeah, you’re the reason for my broken heart
Thought I could forget you
With some help from my friends
But I’ll never forget you
Until I reach my end
Whiskey, vodka, beer, and gin
Are to blame for the shape I’m in
But, you’re the reason I fell apart
Yeah, you’re the reason for my broken heart
Still hope you’ll come back
To put an end to my pain
Still hope you’ll come back
Before I go insane
