Whiskey walking on the road by the moonlight

Can't imagine this is our first lifetime

Told her I was livin' slow, she said, take your time

That's just fine

Seems like you always lose the thing

that you're scared to lose

I'm afraid I was afraid I would have married you

Feels like I'm running out of years in this life

To take possession of a heart like you had mine

Well, I broke every big bone I could break inside my head

I fell like an anvil, baby, this one's gonna last

This lesson can't be worth all of this goddamn mess

But I'll lay my head down and I'll cry and try again

Used to watch you wonder why you never learned to dance

And yet I just took your word on what makes a man

You never liked a risk, but with me you took every chance

To take the boy I was and rip him from my cold hands

Darling, don't you worry, there ain't any bad blood

There ain't a thing that you could say I haven't thought of

It's not a problem, you just changed the way I'm growing up

Kind of a long way to find out I've never known love

I broke every big bone I could break inside my head

I fell like an anvil, baby, this one's gonna last

This lesson can't be worth all of this goddamn mess

But I'll lay my head down and I'll cry and try again
