You were a girl with impossible dreams
And I was just living beyond my means
The presidents warned and the generals cried
So many good things shriveled and died
And now like a hurricane, you come and you go
And I pray the levies will ever hold
'Cause love is a battlefield and you are the gun
Before I could draw, you already won
Someday I'll be over you
Oh, someday please come soon
And the children outside think that life's just a game
And I wish that the clouds will stop spelling your name
You came like a soldier prepared for the thrill
If this whiskey doesn't kill me, then you surely will
So I move to Georgia to start all anew
And the beautiful girls, they all look like you
But they all want more and I'm just a drunk
And all I can give, is never enough
Someday this will all be done
That someday can't come soon enough
And the children outside think that life's just a game
And I wish that the clouds will stop spelling your name
You took off from me once you had your fill
If this whiskey doesn't kill me, then you surely will
Imagine my surprise when you walked in the night
It felt like the bar turned out all the lights
You said you were gone
That your dreams were all drowned
But I'm just a poor boy but in a new town
We both found Jesus, in crazy ways
We spent all our Sundays singing his praise
Though all of our efforts
We both stand-alone
And suddenly this bar, felt like home
Ooh, life's just a game
Ooh, life's just a game
Despite all my troubles
I love you still
If this whiskey doesn't kill me, then you surely will
If this whiskey doesn't kill me, then you surely will
