Final Bet

Met you in Knoxville, beneath that neon light On a humid summer night, everything felt right We danced to some country, sippin' whiskey neat Thought we had it all, but it was just deceit In this empty bar, I place my final bet On memories we made, I can't seem to forget Lost in the whiskey, drownin' in regret In this empty bar, I place my final bet We had our moments, laughin' under stars But somewhere down the line, we lost who we are You found someone new, left me in the dust Now I'm just a shadow, covered in dust I'm drownin' in these bottles, suffocating in smoke Every sip I take, it's like another joke Memories haunt me, they won't let me forget In this empty bar, I place my final bet I'm just a broken record, playin' old sad songs Lost in the echoes of where we went wrong You found your freedom, left me with regret Now I'm just a drunken soul, really tryin' to forget In this empty bar, I place my final bet On memories we made, I can't seem to forget Lost in the whiskey, drownin' in regret In this empty bar, I place my final bet In this empty bar, I place my final bet On a love that's lost, and a heart that's set But I'll keep on drinkin', 'til there's nothin' left In this empty bar, I place my final bet
