When We Used To Drink

Lyrics by Ronny Criss                                    Copyright2005

 

I miss the way you’d laugh at me

When I’d stumble up the stairs and drop the keys

And I miss the scent of smoke and booze

That’d greet me every morning lying next to you

 

Oh I miss the way you’d yell at me

Blame me for things I couldn’t believe

I miss the way you used to think

When we used to drink

 

I miss the love that we’d make

Drunker than a trader at a quarter to eight

And I miss the sound of your breath

Heavy and Steady as I kissed your chest

 

Oh I miss the way you’d scream at me

Tell me I’d never be the man of your dreams

I miss the way you used to think

When we used to drink

 

Oh I miss the hope that we had

Over a couple shots of Johnny Red

And I miss the way you’d throw 'em down

Slam those glasses right into the ground

 

Oh I miss the way you’d swing at me

Rough me up and make me bleed

I miss the way you used to think

When we used to drink
