life’s so tiring, coming home so late at night

when she stayed up waiting, keep forgetting

it’s not right, everyday’s another fight

I’ll slide away if you keep on letting me


it’s much harder than whiskey, would you miss me? will you miss me?


the bride and groom, seen it all end up in doom

too many times, and it makes me wonder

holding you, if the words you say are true

it’s not fair if you’re not there tonight


much warmer than brandy, your arms around me, you surround me


you’ve had enough

she don’t know how much she’s hurting you

she’ll never know the hell she’s put you through

she’s so demanding, can’t take no more I’m out the door


legislate, always so much more at stake

there’s no middle, it’s not so simple

such a drag, you don’t see all that you have

not everyone is quite so lucky now


we drift away like best friends,

fade away in silence, flowers in the dark

I’d sure like to find what brought us both together,

you’re a comrade to the letter


it’s much harder than whiskey, it’s much warmer than brandy

would you miss me? your arms around me


she’s had enough, you don’t know how much you hurt her too

you’ll never know the hell you've put you through

you're so demanding, she’s more understanding, are you understanding?
