lyrics

You said
you had these dreams about me
but darling, you weren't dreaming
cause while you were sleeping
I placed my heart in your keeping
at night we'd go out drinking
and you tripped over it and spilled your beer

and how i wish
Id never taken a sip
maybe I wouldn't forget
that you're not mine
you tell me the same stories every single night
as I scratch yours and you scratch mine
alcoholic groundhog day.

to make your mother proud
make your father doubt
how little faith he puts in you
youre not a fuck up
you're brave enough to choose
don't let life choose for you
whatever hell it sees fit
but Nate please don't sing "If Work Permits"
I know how a sailor will drink to forget

And I bet you don't remember
we played this song together.
I held the frets
you kept the time.
I wish I knew then how much I would mind hearing "I Got You Babe"
in the morning light.

But its time to move along
and its time for the end of this song.
cause you've made a fool of me
and I know now there's nothing more to this mystery than a little bit of beer and whiskey.

Love comes fast
with whiskey
it leaves us just like that
in the morning you wonder where your heart is at.
Alcoholic Groundhog Day
the day I gave my heart away.
You just kept hitting repeat and play.
