Drove Me to the Whiskey

by Casey Donahew Band

on One Light Town (2019)

[Verse 1: Casey Donahew]
It's not your fault that you're not her
It's  just this memory in my head
You  know you always want the ones that you can't have
But still I tear myself apart
Knowing you're the one that breaks
I  pray every night that you don't hear the phone

[Chorus: Casey Donahew]
But  I still call her when I get drunk
And she shows up and drives me home
When  I'm drownin' in a memory that ain't her
Staring at her windshield, headed home
And praying she don't see she's not the one
That drove me to the whiskey

[Verse 2: Casey Donahew]
Now,  if I wasn't scared I'd let her go
But I don't wanna be alone
Why can't the one that's in your arms be in your heart?
One day she'll give up on me too
And I'll be the man she looks right through
She'll wonder why she gave so much and why she cared

[Chorus: Casey Donahew]
But I still call her when I get drunk
And she shows up and drives me home
When I'm drownin' in a memory that ain't her
Staring at her windshield, headed home
And praying she don't see she's not the one
That drove me to the whiskey

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Casey Donahew & Jaime Pierce]
And I still call her when I get drunk
She shows up and drives me home
When I'm drownin' in this memory that ain't her
Staring at her windshield, headed home
And praying she don't see she's not the one
That drove me to the whiskey
And I'm not the one
That drove me to the whiskey
