I don't know why it took your goodbye
To get me down on my knees again
Why every headache with every sunrise
Turns to foldin' up these hands
Maybe it's the Jack that I've been slingin'
Maybe somethin' in the smoke that I've been breathin' in
That always brings me back to the feelin'
Of hopin' and wishin'
That you'll come back and just like that
We'll fall again, forget the fact
We've both tried a million times
But you and I don't work like that
Takes a pull with another shot
Then bow my head and talk to God
Wake up sober and you're not there
I've been prayin' wasted prayers
All these wasted prayers
Nothin' puts me in the past like
Puttin' down this empty glass, I
Could handle this thing with grace
But I prefer to learn the hard way
Sip, sippin' it down
Livin' it up
Learnin' my way 'round
Someone I don't even love, wishin'
You'll come back and just like that
We'll fall again, forget the fact
We've both tried a million times
But you and I don't work like that
Takes a pull with another shot
Then bow my head and talk to God
Wake up sober and you're not there
I've been prayin' wasted prayers
All these wasted prayers
I've been sip, sippin' it down
Livin' it up
Askin' my way 'round
To the angels above if
You'll come back and just like that
We'll fall again, forget the fact?
We've both tried a million times
But you and I don't go like that
Takes a pull with another shot
Then bow my head and talk to God
Wake up sober and you're not there
I've been prayin' wasted prayers
All these wasted prayers, yeah
Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
(Sip, sippin' it down, livin' it up)
Oh, I've been prayin', I've been prayin'
Wasted prayers
All these wasted prayers
