Lyrics and translation
Original
Whiskey walking on the road by the moonlight.
Can't imagine this is our first lifetime. Told her I was living slow, she said, "Take your time.
That's just fine. "
Seems like you always lose the thing that you're scared to lose.
I'm afraid I was afraid I would have married you.
Feels like I'm running out of years in this life to take possession of a heart like you had of mine.
Well, I broke every big bone I could break inside my head.
I fell like an anvil, baby, this one's gonna last.
This lesson can't be worth all of this goddamn mess.
But I'll lay my head down and I'll cry and try again. Mm.
Used to watch you wonder why you never learned to dance, and yet I just took your word on it makes a man.
You never liked to risk, but with me, you took every chance to take the boy I was and rip him from my cold hands.
Darling, don't you worry, there ain't any bad blood.
There ain't a thing that you could say I haven't thought of.
It's not a problem, you just changed the way I'm growing up. Kind of a long way to find out I've never known love.
Could have done without it.
I broke every big bone I could break inside my head.
I fell like an anvil, baby, this one's gonna last.
This lesson can't be worth all of this goddamn mess.
But I'll lay my head down and I'll cry and try again. Try again.
