Whiskey Glasses and Bathroom Mirrors

Two o'clock she hits me hard 
I salute to another captain 
look around and swallow hard 

Not as hard as you leaving 
hitting me straight between the eyes 
stars spinning right after midnight 
can't remember exactly why 

Whispers filled the empty cauldron 
along with a pint of homemade wine 
life already was a struggle living 
now what am I going to do with all this time 

Whiskey glasses and bathroom mirrors 
keep on holding back the cries 
another pent up night in Georgia 
running scared and telling lies 

Come on back before the summer 
when my troubles will be unclothed 
sprinkle love upon these shoulders 
before this man has decomposed
