"Around Here" lyrics - WHITEY MORGAN AND THE 78'S
The life of the party
The life of this house
What little light that I had left
Inside this heart of mine
Just went out
No "I love you"
And there was no "Goodbye"
She just grabbed the keys in silence, turned the engine
That was it, she was flyin'
Yeah she was flyin'
[Chorus 1:]
Now she's somewhere out there high on champagne glasses
Carryin' on like she didn't do me wrong
I'm down here on the floor, walls collapsin'
I can't even drink her memory gone
Ain't it hard to move on when you're down
To the last of last night's beer
It's the bottom of the bottle around here
I'm gonna get up, but girl it's gonna take time
I keep reachin' up and reachin' out
Lovin' her and hatin' her in my mind
Hell I can't decide
[Chorus 1:]
Now she's somewhere out there high on champagne glasses
Carryin' on like she didn't do me wrong
I'm down here on the floor, walls collapsin'
I can't even drink her memory gone
Ain't it hard to move on when you're down
To the last of last night's beer
It's the bottom of the bottle around here
[Instrumental]
[Chorus 2:]
She's somewhere out there high on champagne glasses
Dancin' while the band plays all night long
I'm mad and drunk and still ain't sure what happened
Why she'd go and do a good man wrong
Ain't it hard to move on when you're down
To the last of last night's beer
It's the bottom of the bottle around here
[Outro:]
She's somewhere out there high on champagne glasses
Dancin' while the band plays cheatin' songs
I'm down here on the floor, walls collapsin'
