Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I remember that summer, under the old oak tree,
Your laughter was a melody, the sweetest song to me.
We danced in the moonlight, our dreams intertwined,
But now I’m left with shattered hopes, and a heart that’s in decline.
[Chorus]
I loved her, oh I loved her, more than words can say,
She took the dog, left the farm, took the sunshine from my day.
Now this empty house echoes with the pain,
And I’m drowning my sorrows in a whiskey rain.
[Verse 2]
The farmhouse we built with our own two hands,
Now it stands alone, just a shell of our plans.
I’ve been drinking to forget, but it only makes it worse,
Each bottle’s a reminder of this love and its curse.
[Chorus]
I loved her, oh I loved her, more than words can say,
She took the dog, left the farm, took the sunshine from my day.
Now this empty house echoes with the pain,
And I’m drowning my sorrows in a whiskey rain.
[Bridge]
I’ve been fighting for her love, every day and every night,
Trying to make things right, but it’s a losing fight.
Last night I hit the bottle, thought I’d drive it off,
But the road turned dark and twisted, and I nearly paid the cost.
[Chorus]
I loved her, oh I loved her, more than words can say,
She took the dog, left the farm, took the sunshine from my day.
Now this empty house echoes with the pain,
And I’m drowning my sorrows in a whiskey rain.
[Verse 3]
I crashed the old sedan, as I tried to find my way,
I nearly lost my life, just to drown my heartache away.
If you’re listening, darling, to this song I sing tonight,
I’d give up everything, just to make things right.
[Chorus]
I loved her, oh I loved her, more than words can say,
She took the dog, left the farm, took the sunshine from my day.
Now this empty house echoes with the pain,
And I’m drowning my sorrows in a whiskey rain.
[Outro]
So if you hear this message, and you still recall my name,
I’ll do anything to mend the broken pieces of our flame.
I’m sorry for the hurt, and the tears that you’ve cried,
Just hoping you’ll come back and stand by my side.
