Lyrics
I tried drownin' you out with a few budlights
Neon buzz and jukebox loud I don't won't to fight
They bought me whiskey because they know me by name
Bartender smirked like, "Here we go again"
Your memory sittin' in the passenger seat
Every red light feels like deja vu to me
I roll the windows down, and let the cold air hit
But it don't stop my mind from thinking about us
I thought I was doin' alright
untill I heard our song tonight
Ain't strong enough to forget you yet
Tried every road, tried every fix
New faces, new drinks, new regrets
But none of it's workin' like I said
I still see you in every town
I can still hear your laugh even when it's loud
I thought time would pull me through
But I ain't strong enough... to get over you
I cleaned the house, boxed up your clothes
Left your perfume on the dresser though
Guess I need somethin' to remind me why
I loved you hard and let you go
My buddies say, "Man, you'll be fine"
Like heartbreak works on a deadline
Truth is I faked it pretty good
But that loneliness hits hard when it wants to
I swear I was feelin' okay
Then your name popped up my phone today
Ain't strong enough to forget you yet
Tried every road, tried every fix
New faces, new drinks, new regrets
But none of it's workin' like I said
I still see you in every town
I can still hear your laugh even when it's loud
I thought time would pull me through
But I ain't strong enough... to get over you
Maybe one day it won't hit this hard
Won't feel like a punch in the face
Maybe I'll wake up and the memories will be gone
From my mind, from every song
But tonight ain't that night
I'm still missin' you this ain't right
Ain't strong enough to forget you yet
Tried every road, tried every fix
New faces, new drinks, new regrets
But none of it's workin' like I said
I still see you in every town
I can still hear your laugh even when it's loud
I thought time would pull me through
But I ain't strong enough... to get over you
Yeah, I'll be alright... someday soon
Just not tonight... not without you
