Blood Sweat and Beers Songtext
von These Green Eyes

I had to have a drink today
To stop my hand from shaking
To keep my heart from breaking
To stop these tears from
Running down my face
When I heard the news

I knew that I had failed you
I wasn′t there to save you
And I let you down again

So pass the bottle around
Make sure to hold it down

Because it's the only warmth

We′ll find tonight in this whole damn town
And that's what happens
When we live our lives as strangers
We hide from all our failures
Oh, will we ever learn?


I had to have a drink today
To stop my hand from shaking
To keep my heart from breaking
To stop these tears from
Running down my face

When I heard the news
I knew that I had failed you
I wasn't there to save you
And I let you down again

And isn′t this a shame

We only found each other
Through grief
Through loss and pain
And if it doesn′t kill us
Can't we say it made us stronger
We lost a friend and brother

Oh, will we ever learn?


I had to have a drink today
To stop my hand from shaking
To keep my heart from breaking
To stop these tears from
Running down my face
When I heard the news
I knew that I had failed you
I wasn′t there to save you
And I let you down again

I had to have a drink today
To stop my hand from shaking
To keep my heart from breaking
To stop these tears from
Running down my face
When I heard the news
I knew that I had failed you
I wasn't there to save you
And I let you down again

I had to have a drink today
To stop my hands from shaking
To keep my heart from breaking
′Cause I let you down again
