Belle Margot - Whiskey and Midnight Lies

Whiskey and Midnight Lies

(Verse 1)
I see you walking through the door,
Same old smile I fell for before.
You pour a drink, make a toast,
To all the dreams we loved and lost.

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, your words are smooth as Tennessee gold,
But I know your stories are getting old.

(Chorus)
Whiskey and midnight lies,
Burning deep in your hazel eyes.
You swear you're staying this time,
But I hear the goodbye in your sigh.

(Verse 2)
Your hands still know their way around,
Tracing sins that pull me down.
A melody of love and regret,
A song I just can't forget.

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, your touch is warm, but the night is cold,
And your promises have all been sold.

(Chorus)
Whiskey and midnight lies,
Burning deep in your hazel eyes.
You swear you're staying this time,
But I hear the goodbye in your sigh.

(Bridge)
I should walk, I should run,
Leave before the damage is done.
But your voice is a siren’s call,
And once again, I lose it all…

(Chorus – softer, then building up)
Whiskey and midnight lies,
Burning deep in your hazel eyes.
You swear you're staying this time,
But I hear the goodbye in your sigh.

(Outro – fading)
So I'll take one last sip, let the memories drown,
Before the morning comes, and you're not around…
