[Verse 1]

 Bitter sweet thing, could this be a dream

 Or just the same nightmare that keeps me awake

 Feel it in my brain, toss out of pain

 Pour a little up now, for the love that we made



 I feel it in the morning, you’re still here in the morning

 I see you, but you gonna telephone the doctor, I’m not okay

 The bottom of the bottle, to fill this empty heart up

 A thousand proof don’t change the truth

 I tried it, but I can’t



 [Chorus]

 I can’t drink you away

 I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim

 I’ve tried all of thei friends

 I can’t drink you away

 All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin, oh baby them say

 Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break

 Ooh, no, tell me baby, oh yeah

 Now don't they make a medicine for heart break



 Got a pounding on my brain, so I drowned it away

 When the sun comes up tomorrow

 You can find me doing the same

 'Cause I just can’t forget

 The way we turned out this, babe

 And now the only thing that sleeps here is a ghost of you instead



 I feel it in the morning, you’re still here in the morning

 I see you, but you gonna telephone the doctor, I’m not okay

 The bottom of the bottle, to fill this empty heart up

 A thousand proof don’t change the truth

 I tried it, but I can’t



 [Chorus]

 I can’t drink you away

 I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried gin,

 I’ve tried all of them in

 I can’t drink you away

 All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin, oh baby them say

 Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break

 Ooh, no, tell me baby, oh yeah

 Now don't they make a medicine for heart break



 I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away

 I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away

 I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away

 I can’t drink you, no I can’t drink you away, away, away



 Oooh, I can’t drink you, I can’t drink you away



 [Chorus]

 I can’t drink you away

 I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim

 I’ve tried all of their fridens

 I can’t drink you away

 All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin, oh baby them say

 Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break

 Ooh, no, tell me baby, oh yeah

 Now don't they make a medicine for heart break



 [Chorus]

 I can’t drink you away

 I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried gin,

 I’ve tried all of them in

 I can’t drink you away

 All these rocks, I can’t swim out of this skin, oh baby them say

 Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break

 Ooh, no, tell me baby, oh yeah

 Now don't they make a medicine for heart break
