Whiskey Lullaby
She put him out, like the burning end of a midnight cigerette
She broke his heart he spent his whole life trying to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memmory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I'll love her till I die
And when we burried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
lalalalalalala lalalalalalala lalalalalalala lalalalalalala
The rumors flew
But nobody knew how much she blaimed herself
For years and years
She tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
Until the night
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
lalalalalalala lalalalalalala lalalalalalala lalalalalalala
lalalalalalala lalalalalalala
lalalalalalala lalalalalalala

This song has been a very important to me because of something that happened to one of my family members. We loved him and miss him dearly, but I guess stuff happens for a reason right? This is not my work this was made by Alison Kraus and Brad Paisley but it is a very beautiful song and it has held a spot in my heart forever.
