Tilt Your Glass Again (version 2)

Verse 1

Fifteen years of watching you come and go

Your heels on the tile, the smoke rolling low

I learned to let you walk right out that door

Broke my heart into pieces, left me wanting more

You said goodbye but never said why

Just smiled at me and walked by

Now your shadow falls across this old place

And I'm standing here with a heavy heart and no space

Pre-Chorus

Is it too much to ask you to stay for just one more night?

To turn back around and dance under the neon light?

Maybe then we can talk about what drove us apart

Maybe then my heart will finally heal like an old scar

Chorus

Tilt your glass again, baby

Let the whiskey wash away what we couldn't say

I'll sit here watching as you spin around

Hoping that someday love might find its way back home

Verse 2

Your eyes catch mine across this crowded room

But they're looking right through me like I'm just a ghost in your tomb

You don't see the heartache or the tears I've cried

Just the man who's still here waiting for you to realize

I built a life without you, brick by brick and stone

But every night you walk away still feels like my home

So I'll sit right here and watch as you dance in the dark

Hoping someday your footsteps will lead back where we started from

Pre-Chorus

Is it too much to ask you to stay for just one more night?

To turn back around and dance under the neon light?

Maybe then we can talk about what drove us apart

Maybe then my heart will finally heal like an old scar

Chorus

Tilt your glass again, baby

Let the whiskey wash away what we couldn't say

I'll sit here watching as you spin around

Hoping that someday love might find its way back home

Bridge

We were young and wild when this all began

And maybe someday we can be young and wild again

But for now I'm just a man who's lost his way

Watching the girl I loved dance into another day

Chorus

Tilt your glass again, baby

Let the whiskey wash away what we couldn't say

I'll sit here watching as you spin around

Hoping that someday love might find its way back home
