"Long Year" lyrics

"Long Year"

How am I supposed to pretend like I'm alright?
This house don't feel like home, and I miss my friends

It's been a long year
A long year
Just me and a whiskey bottle
Yeah. I drink alone now
Get stoned now
It helps me not feel hollow
Girl, if I could, I'd tell you I'm sorry
I'd take back the things I said that night
Your side of the bed's getting cold
I just pray to God you're coming home tomorrow
'Til then, whiskey bottle

My wishing well's gone dry
And I can't see the stars when I'm in Nashville
I left my world in fortune Georgia
Had hopes of fame and dreams of fortune
But it ain't here
Seems even Jack and Daniels can't help me care

It's been a long year
A long year
Just me and a whiskey bottle
Yeah. I drink alone now
Get stoned now
It helps me not feel hollow
Girl, if I could, I'd tell you I'm sorry
I'd take back the things I said that night
Your side of the bed's getting cold
I just pray to God you're coming home tomorrow
'Til then, it's me and a whiskey bottle

It's been a long year
A long year
Just me and a whiskey bottle
Yeah. I drink alone now
Get stoned now
It helps me not feel hollow
Girl, if I could, I'd tell you I'm sorry
I'd take back the things I said that night
Your side of the bed's getting cold
I just pray to God you're coming home tomorrow
'Til then, it's me and a whiskey bottle
