I turned this town into a cancer Now movin' on's my only answer My roots obstruct the exit way You and I both know there's nothing left to say I am making my daring escape I'm sneaking out, my world I reshape I sneak through the door, don not distract I'm looking forward, never looking back Our dreams like whiskey, better with time you see? Rush the drunk, it's not the same There ain't no heaven, not in this world I wish you were begging me to stay One day I'll write a letter Just to let you know I am doing much better Maybe I'll pick up the telephone I don't know why, no way you'll let me come back home Our dreams like whiskey, better with time you see? Rush the drunk, it's not the same There ain't no heaven, not in this world I wish you were begging me to stay

Dreams Like Whiskey
I turned this town into a cancer Now movin' on's my only answer My roots obstruct the exit way You and I both know there's nothing left to say I am making my daring escape I'm sneaking out, my world I reshape I sneak through the door, don not distract I'm looking forward, never looking back Our dreams like whiskey, better with time you see? Rush the drunk, it's not the same There ain't no heaven, not in this world I wish you were begging me to stay One day I'll write a letter Just to let you know I am doing much better Maybe I'll pick up the telephone I don't know why, no way you'll let me come back home Our dreams like whiskey, better with time you see? Rush the drunk, it's not the same There ain't no heaven, not in this world I wish you were begging me to stay
