Whiskey's Lullaby
I sit by sorrow's streams
Amidst wistful longing
Your first soft kiss that lingered
will forever haunt my dreams
How sad it seems
to be so slavishly in love
weary even of life,
such sorrowful extremes,
but I hear remnants of our song
and pine for your possession
to live without you is my bane
life has dealt a bitter wrong
lost in the loneliness
this bereft heart grieves
solace now I seek, in
whiskey's lullaby to forgetfulness
