I said bartender, I need one shot whiskey Two shots of pain and a dash of some memory With life's lemons I made lemonade Does it still taste the same if I mix it with some Hennessey Dreams of being young and unafraid But I loved somebody and it drained all my energy Oh, and I thought that love was magnificent I remember being 7 years old Thinking "Oh My God" what's it feel to be 23 Now I'm 27 staring at a kid in the mirror And all I do is wonder if he's proud of me Broken promises made me this way I swear I wasn't always numb and indifferent Bartender, I need one shot of whiskey But what could I tip you to refund my innocence (Oh hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo) Would I rather be rich in gold Or rather be rich in the fire What if I wake up alone Maybe I'm sick and tired Or maybe I'm just getting (oh hoo hoo hoo) Maybe I'm just getting older Hey bartender, Happily ever after, why don't I don't see it happening Hey bartender, Have you ever been in love with someone but terrified of settling Remember I was young and behaved But I hurt somebody and I couldn't find a remedy And I thought that love was like medicine I remember being 7 years old Thinking "Oh My God" what's it feel to be 23 Now I'm 29 starting at a kid in the mirror And all I do is wonder if he's proud of me Broken promises made me this way I swear I wasn't always numb and indifferent Bartender, I need one shot of whiskey But what could I tip you to refund my innocence (Oh hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo) Cause I don't wanna be rich in gold I'd rather be rich in the fire I don't wanna wake up alone Maybe I'm sick and tired Or maybe I'm just getting old I'd rather have you to hold Maybe I'm just getting They say the older you get Oh, the wiser you are I should be wiser by far But I feel more like a child now Heaven knows I'm a mess But there's still some time to build us A sandcastle inside of this hourglass And I hope that it's with you when I say Bartender, one shot of whiskey Two shots of pain and a dash of some memory
