I have a tendency to laugh at all the wrong moments. Sometimes I forget the words to my own song. I'm not the silent type or an exit sign or a yellow brick road. You are the one thing that I know. It's in the wine we drink, dirty dishes in the kitchen sink, And the lights go out til the sun comes up; we are not alone. It's in the miles we drive, never having to say goodbye To the things we tell each other without saying a word. You are the one thing that I know. There's a beauty that we never know what the future holds. Beneath the surface we are the calm, we are the storm. I'm not sunset or a hurricane or a Vincent Van Gogh. You are the one thing that I know. It's in the wine we drink, dirty dishes in the kitchen sink, And the lights go out til the sun comes up; we are not alone. It's in the miles we drive, never having to say goodbye To the things we tell each other without saying a word. You are the one thing that I know. It's in the wine we drink, dirty dishes in the kitchen sink, And the lights to out til the sun comes up; we are not alone. You are the one thing that I know.

Not long ago you held our baby's bottle But the one you're holding now's a different kind You just sit and wait to be somebody's baby And it all depends on who will buy the wine Whoever sets 'em up and tips the waitress Your kind of love just might as well be blind You'll never know whose lips you'll soon be kissing And it all depends on who will buy the wine [ Fiddle - steel ] The kind of life you're living since you've left me I'm sure it's not the life you thought you choosed That honky tonky world is not so flashy Bright lights and blues is all it really knows Whoever sets 'em up and tips the waitress...

That psycho, that psychologist Asked me about my drinking ways Every question that he asked me All related back on to my childhood days But if the truth was known I never took the drinking long, long as she was mine But when she left me I went to hell Heaven was a drink of wine That good doctor said, "Look at all These ink spots and tell me what you see Could I help it if they all look like Big ol' broken hearts to me?" Ah, my friends in Cane'll tell you Ol' Haggard ain't a drinking kind But when she left me I went to hell And heaven was a drink of wine Get back, get back Get on back and leave me alone Can't you see that you can't help A man that's just for gone Hey, good doctor, I've got something You can't find in my mind When she left me I went to hell Heaven was a drink of wine Hey, good doctor Heaven was a drink of wine
