I came home to find you were gone
On a cold grey morning, I remember now
That's the way you said it would be
Like living in a bad dream
Alcohol in the bloodstream
Goin' to have to do, 'til I forget about you
Ooh 'til I forget about you
 
Some dead wild flowers
And a bottle of vodka on the kitchen table
Flowers for the good times and booze for the bad
I can curse I can scream
But alcohol in the bloodstream
'Bout the best I can do - 'til I forget about you
Ooh 'til I forget about you
 
Now my strings are all unstrung
Everything I could do I've done
Just waiting for daylight to comе, to come

I wonder wherе you've gone
And I wonder how long I can take this loneliness
Two hundred first calf heifers and a deal is a deal I guess
Then I'll roll my bed get away clean
Alcohol in the bloodstream
Goin' to quit you too
Then I'll forget about you
Ooh 'til I forget about you
Ooh 'til I forget about you
Ooh 'til I forget about you
