Secret Of The Bottle

I feel better when I'm drinking, it just seems to ease my mind

And all my worries and troubles, they just seem to fade behind

Oh the secret of the bottle it may never be known

So I'll raise my glass and propose a toast and this one baby is for you

I start to laugh when I'm drinking, I may tell a joke or two

Sometimes I'll even pretend that I'm still in love with you

And you ask me if I've felt pain

After all that I've been through

I've paid more than just my dues

I felt the pain of you

I feel the pain when I'm drinking, it just don't seem to cut as deep

And when I lay down without you it makes it easy to go to sleep
