Half a Bottle Down - Terri Clark

It didn’t have the makings of a mystery

You’ve been leaving every trace

You said you wanted to talk to me, be better face to face

Here we are, here it is

Drop drop, shot by shot

Just trying to get ahead

Of the pain that’s coming

There’s no use running

I’ll numb myself instead

Won’t go too far, I’m just not ready yet

I’m a little too sober

Can you let me go slower

Let’s talk about over

Half a bottle down

If you’re bringing on a buzz kill

Gonna need another refill

Baby can it wait till

Half a bottle down

You may think I’ve had enough

But I’m still underserved

Still working on my armor

While you’re working up the nerve

Take your time

You sure took your share of mine

I’m a little too sober

Can you let me go slower

Let’s talk about over

Half a bottle down

If you’re bringing on a buzz kill

Gonna need another refill

Baby can it wait till

Half a bottle down

Half a bottle down

Just one more

Till I get down to that line

And when you close the door

We’ll both be feeling fine

I’m a little too sober

Can you let me go slower

Let’s talk about over

Half a bottle down

If you’re bringing on a buzz kill

Gonna need another refill

Baby can it wait till

Half a bottle down

Half a bottle down

Half a bottle down

It didn’t have the makings of a mystery

You’ve been leaving every trace

Here we are, here it is
