[Verse 1] He sits all alone in his easy chair Staring back on his lost yesterdays Long before he encountered the bottle And the demons that drove her away In his hand he is holding her photograph Her image all tearstained and worn Tonight hes embracing reality And he curses the day he was born [Chorus] And the darkness still echoes her warning You cant have two loves in your life Now the things that will haunt him Until the day that he dies Is the smell of cheap whiskey And the sound of goodbye [Verse 2] Since the hour that she left hes been sober And each breath that he draws makes him think About the light of his life gone forever When he traded her love for a drink [Chorus] And the darkness still echoes her warning You cant have two loves in your life Now the things that will haunt him Until the day that he dies Is the smell of cheap whiskey And the sound of goodbye The smell of cheap whiskey And the sound of goodbye
