Bourbon Blue - Michael McDermott

Graceful, moving like a dancer

She’s waiting for an answer

She just sang along

Didn’t know that song

Captured, raptured by your spirit

Words, I couldn’t hear it

What was I to do?

I was feeling like a fool

Listen to the whisper

Sounds of morning coming through

Keep holding on for my bourbon blue

Ballerina, she moves slowly

Air was almost holy

Stole what I had lost

Mayors in the cross

Worthless, caught myself drifting

The weight I had been lifting

To try and figure out

What this whole thing was about

Downward, I was falling

Reaching for a sense of truth

Keep holding on for my bourbon blue

I know it’s stupid

It’s just stupid way you’re thinking

And I kneel and I confess

To my total lack of purpose

Singing, writing songs about how I love her

Living life like in a slumber

Feeling like an ass

I felt so useless

Downward, I was falling

Reaching for a sense of truth

Keep holding on for my bourbon blue

Yeah, for my bourbon blue

I keep holding my secret blue

Wishing it was you

I keep holding my secret blue, blue, blue
