Ivan & Alyosha Whiskey & Wine Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up in the morning
Without you by my side
I'm trying to remember
Why you said your goodbyes
And my head was pounding
As I walked through the door
I can't let you leave me
Like the women before

[Chorus]
That whiskey and wine
Gets me through the hardest of days
I know it's not right
And I know it's not okay
Those old hymns and rhymes
Yeah they keep the potions away
Be patient my darling
In the light of my day

[Verse 2]
Feels like I'm in the shadow
Of an unwritten song
Searching for the right meaning
Of where I went wrong
Well I've been thinking 'bout Heaven
And I've been thinking 'bout Hell
If my woman don't kill me
The Lord might as well
[Chorus]
That whiskey and wine Gets me through the hardest of days
I know it's not right
And I know it's not okay
Those old hymns and rhymes
Yeah they keep the potions away
Be patient my darling
In the light of my day

[Verse 3]
If I could persuade you
Make my heart beat again
Bring me up from the ashes
Make me whole, my friend
Said a man don't need rest
We can do without comfort
Oh, but the threat of a life without love will drive the best of men down

[Chorus]
To that whiskey and wine
Gets me through the hardest of days
I know it's not right
And I know it's not okay
Those old hymns and rhymes
Yeah they keep the potions away
Be patient my darling
In the light of my day
Be patient my darling
For the light of my day
