It was rainin' and We were standin' on the street of one hot summer day
You were sayin' that I wasn't lookin' at your eyes, oh babe what could I have done?
The wind was warm as `like I felt when I first saw you dancin' to the weekend's song
We both knew how it would be at the end but we started the love in the madness
In a bottle in my heart
I put the words I couldn't say
on the back of the letters you left
In a bottle in my heart
All of the promises we made
are floatin' over the sea of whiskey tonight.
You must have been waitin' for me to stay in the space where you could find me easy
'I'm becomin' the rose with the thorns
that make you hurt and cry' Oh, that's what I said
You wanted me to be nice as sweet as when I've told you, 'Ya look great, sweetheart’
But I turned my step away to remain myself as the man
In a bottle in my heart
I put the words I couldn't say
on the back of the letters you left
In a bottle in my heart
All of the promises we made
are floatin' over the sea of whiskey tonight.
We needed each other much more than the others
We used to be a chaser who tried to follow and lead
Here ain't nothing left, so it's time to be on the road where we can never ever be together
In a bottle in my heart
I put the words I couldn't say
on the back of the letters you left
In a bottle in my heart
All of the promises we made
are floatin' over the sea of whiskey tonight.
