Verse 1:

This bottle lends a helping hand to memories I can not grasp
Its cold rim brew chips right through the remainders of our past
Swallowing my pride with lies I told, Like how I’m stronger this day
I will raise a toast to “moving on” until the whiskey drowns you away

Chorus:

"I Raise A Toast" - To that enchanting west coast where we discovered who we are
"Here’s To New Orleans" - Those drunken dreams of how we could reach the stars
"Bottoms Up" - To that ol’ pickup truck that drove us home on our wedding day
"To Good Cheers" - For those treasured years we shared before you went away
"One Last Call" - Celebrating all that we are and the few promises we could keep
So now I lay me down where I wont miss you much in a deep whiskey sleep

Verse 2:

The closest thing I have to loving you now is at this bottle’s end
Its much like our lives, first burns like fire, poison’s sweet & sour blend
But when its gone I’m only left holding my last few drops of dignity
So I will take another shot, a careless ritual to maintain my sanity

Chorus:

"I Raise A Toast" - To that enchanting west coast where we discovered who we are
"Here’s To New Orleans" - Those drunken dreams of how we could reach the stars
"Bottoms Up" - To that ol’ pickup truck that drove us home on our wedding day
"To Good Cheers" - For those treasured years we shared before you went away
"One Last Call" - Celebrating all that we are and the few promises we could keep
So now I lay me down where I wont miss you much in a deep whiskey sleep

Bridge:

We were lovers, we were fighters, but not always on the same side
We rushed through life like blazing flames, only to watch the embers die
At times I want to sober up, win you back, but I’m in this too deep
So I will just blur the memory of our past in a deep whiskey sleep

Chorus:

"I Raise A Toast" - To that enchanting west coast where we discovered who we are
"Here’s To New Orleans" - Those drunken dreams of how we could reach the stars
"Bottoms Up" - To that ol’ pickup truck that drove us home on our wedding day
"To Good Cheers" - For those treasured years we shared before you went away
"One Last Call" - Celebrating all that we are and the few promises we could keep
So now I lay me down where I wont miss you much in a deep whiskey sleep
