Bubbles In My Beer Lyrics - Hank Thompson

Tonight in a bar alone I'm sitting 

Apart from the laughter and the cheer 

While scenes from the past rise before me 

I'm watching the bubbles in my beer 

A vision of someone who loved me 

Brings a lone silent tear to my eye 

And I know that my life's been a failure 

Just watching 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 

While watching the bubbles in my beer 

As I think of the heart that I've broken 

And the golden chances that have passed me by 

The dreams that I had now are empty 

As empty as the bubbles in my beer
