Drinking Again - Lyrics by Bette Midler


Lyrics
Drinkin' again.

Thinking of when you loved me.

Having a few.

Wishing that you were here.


Making the rounds.

Buying a round for total strangers.

Just being a fool,
'cause I keep hoping, hoping, hoping you'll appear.


Sure I can borrow a smoke.
I can sit here all night and tell these jokers some jokes,
but who wants to laugh, who's gonna laugh
at a broken heart?

Oh, my heart is aching, I swear it's breaking.


And I'm drinking again.

Thinking of when you loved me.

And I'm tryin' to get home
with nothing, nothing but a memory.


Yes, I'm dying to get home,
dying to get home.

And I got nothin' but a bottle of beer,
and just my memory.
