Lyrics

Verse 1

Barroom quiet as the final song fades outIce melts slow in the bottom of my glassNight shift ending for the ones who never leftJust another round that didn’t quite last

Chorus

Empty glassStill feels rightOne more pourEnds the night

Verse 2

Stories linger in the smoke above the barFaces I know better than my own right handWe don’t talk much but the silence says enoughThis is the only place that understands

Chorus

Empty glassStill feels rightOne more pourEnds the night

Bridge

One last dropThen I’m through

Verse 3

When the lights come up I’ll step into the coldPay my tab and leave the rest behindEmpty glass is all the truth I need tonightSome nights that’s enough to ease the mind

Chorus

Empty glassStill feels rightOne more pourEnds the night
