# Whiskey Can't Wash You Away
**Verse 1:**
Midnight finds me in this empty barroom
Drowning sorrows in a bottle of Jack
Your memory's a ghost I can't outrun
No matter how far down this road I track
**Chorus:**
Whiskey can't wash you away
Though Lord knows I've tried
These tears just keep on falling
Like rain from a endless sky
I'd give anything to hold you
For just one more day
But whiskey can't wash you away
**Verse 2:**
Our love was like a wildfire in summer
Burned so bright but it couldn't last
Now all that's left are ashes and embers
Of a future that went up too fast
*(Repeat Chorus)*
**Bridge:**
I close my eyes and see your face
Feel your touch, hear your voice
But when I reach out, you're not there
And I'm left with no choice...
*(Repeat Chorus)*
**Outro:**
No, whiskey can't wash you away...
