Bottle O' Tears Lyrics - Singles - Georgia Satellites

I had an ocean of promises 

That never came true 

I had a mountain of hope baby 

Sailed right off into the blue 

Thought I had everything I want 

But then the truth comes clear 

All I got left is this one bottle of tears 

All I got left is this one bottle of tears 

Now come drink one with me honey 

Yeah one for old times sake 

The taste ought to be familiar by now 

No there ain't no mistake 

Grab a glass pour it slow 

Drinkin' a toast to the long lost years 

(repeat chorus) 

It's always been here waitin' 

Down at the end of the line 

White table cloth two empty glasses 

Filled with tears and a bottle of wine 

(repeat chorus) 

Now it's gettin late so let's drink up 

Here's to me and here's to you 

And here's to hope, love, faith, and dreams 

And all the things that we never could do 

Don't wait 'round on no miracle 

Ain't nothin' close to a miracle here 

Just lonely, lonely nothin' 

Nothin' but this bottle of tears 

Nothin' but this bottle of tears 

Nothin' but this bottle of tears
