Whisky & Melatonin

I still remember the pain like yesterday
It keeps lying in bed awake
I’ve tried and tried to cry
But the tear ducts dried up all the way
Wishing for a way to have you here with me
The only way I know is in my dreams

Whiskey and Melatonin
Help me fall asleep tonight
Whiskey and melatonin
Counting sheep in perfect time

Having a drink to calm me down
Is a nightly occurrence now
I’ve tried to slow the pace
But it all just blows up in my face
The drinks get stronger through the day
Simple remedies, bought with hard-earned pay

Whiskey and melatonin
Help me fall asleep tonight
Whiskey and melatonin
Counting sheep in perfect time

One tall glass puts the pain in the past
As I drift off slowly
Smiling as I slip away to see my one and only
For a moment in time
There’s peace in my mind
that I hope never ends
But when our time is up
I’ll pour one up
To meet back here again
