Tonight in a bar alone
I’m sitting apart from
The laughter and the cheer
Scenes from the past
Rise before me while
Watching the bubbles in my beer
Visions of someone
Who loved me brings
Along salty tears to my eyes
And I know that my life’s
Been a failure
Watching the bubbles in my beer

I’m seeing the road
That I’ve travelled
A road paved
With heartaches and tears
And I’m seeing the past
That I’ve wasted
Watching the bubbles in my beer
Visions of someone who loved me…
