Sometimes the Pain

I picked up the phone today And I dialed your number I didn't know what to say So I hung up on the second ring You see I thought that I could explain But I just couldn't play through the pain And you probably wouldn't have answered anyway . One drink wont make me forget It's gonna take me About 10 more yet But I know by morning light your memory is gonna haunt me out of my mind But I'm gonna try to drink you away One more time Anyway . I'm haunted by the ghost of yesterday Whiskeys' the only exorcist, to drive it away But those Ol Demons just won't leave They know too much about me they just won't go And even though it only tortures my soul Sometimes this pain's the only friend I really know . One drink wont make me forget It's gonna take me About 10 more yet But I know by morning light your memory is gonna haunt me out of my mind But I'm gonna try to drink you away One more time Anyway And even though They're killing this man Sometimes they're the only friends I have that understand There's no comfort in the pain of what might have been . One drink wont make me forget It's gonna take me About 10 more yet But I know by morning light your memory is gonna haunt me out of my mind But I'm gonna try to drink you away One more time Anyway And even though it only tortures my soul Sometimes this pain's the only friend I really know
