Tonight in a bar alone I'm sitting
Apart from the laughter and the cheers
While scenes from the past rise before me
Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer.
A vision of someone who loved me
Brings alone silent tear to my eye
And I know that my life's been a failure
Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer.
I'm seeing the road that I've traveled
A road paved with heartaches and tears
And I'm seeing the past that I've wasted
Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer.
As I think of the heart that I've broken
And the golden chances that have passed me by
And the dreams that I've made, now are empty
As empty as the bubbles in my beer...
