| Tonight in a bar alone I’m sitting
|
| Apart from the laughter and the cheers
|
| While scenes from the past rise before me Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer
|
| A vision of someone who loved me Brings a lone silent tear to my eye
|
| Oh, I know that my life’s been a failure
|
| Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer
|
| I’m seeing the road that I’ve traveled
|
| A road paved with heartaches and tears
|
| And I’m seeing the past that I’ve wasted
|
| While watchin' the bubbles in my beer
|
| As I think of the heart that I’ve broken
|
| And all the golden chances that have passed me by And the dreams that I’ve made, now are empty
|
| As empty as the bubbles in my beer |
