I said bartender, I need one shot Whiskey
Two shots of pain and a dash of some memory
With life's lemons I made lemonade
Does it still taste the same if i mix it with some Hennessey?
Dreams of being young and unafraid
But i loved somebody and it drained all my energy
Ooh, and i thought that love was magnificent
I remember being 7 years old
Thinking "Oh My God" what's it feel to be 23
Now i'm 27 staring at a kid in the mirror
And all I do is wonder if he's proud of me
Broken promises made me this way I swеar
I wasn't always numb and indifferent
Bartendеr, I need one shot of whiskey
But what could i tip you to refund my innocence?
(oh hoo hoo hoo)
Would i rather be rich in gold?
Or rather be rich in the fire?
What if i wake up alone?
Maybe I'm sick and tired
Or maybe i'm just getting-(oh hoo hoo hoo)
Maybe I'm just getting older
Hey bartender
Happily ever after, why don't i see it happening?
Hey bartender
Have you ever been in love with someone but terrified of settling?
Remember I was young and behaved
But i hurt somebody and I couldn't find a remedy
And i thought that love was like medicine
I remember being 7 years old
Thinking "Oh My God" what's it feel to be 23
Now i'm 27 staring at a kid in the mirror
And all I do is wonder if he's proud of me
Broken promises made me this way I swear
I wasn't always numb and indifferent
Bartender, I need one shot of whiskey
But what could i tip you to refund my innocence?
(oh hoo hoo hoo)
'Cause I don't wanna be rich in gold
I'd rather be rich in the fire
I don't wanna wake up alone
Maybe I'm sick and tired
Or maybe i'm just getting old
I'd rather have you to hold
Maybe I'm just getting-
They say the older you get
Oh, the wiser you are I should be wiser by far
But i feel more like a child now
Heaven knows i'm a mess
But there's still some time to build us
A sandcastle inside of this hourglass
And i hope it's with you when i say
Bartender, one shot of whiskey
Two shots of pain and a dash of some memory
