It Didn't Look Like Alcohol Lyrics - Singles - Howard Rebecca Lynn

Didn't look like alcohol to me 

But his hands were shakin' like a willow leaf 

Reaching out for one more drink 

He didn't look like a loser to me 

But he was lost behind his tears 

Something had to drive him in here 

He don't fit in with this crowd 

Somewhere,sometime he was proud 

There's a storm stretched out 

A million miles across his heart 

And a war he's fighting 

In the dark 

Whatever it is,something bigger then him 

Drove him too far down to crawl 

But it didn't look like alcohol 

Thought I heard him say somebody's name 

But I pretended like I didn't hear 

I just wished that I could disappear 

He was cracking like a desert of burning shame 

Pleading with someone that I couldn't see 

He might as well've been on his knees 

Like a bomb tickin' ready to blow 

He got up in a hurry to go 

There's a storm stretched out 

A million miles across his heart 

And a war he's fighting 

In the dark 

Whatever it is,something bigger then him 

Drove him too far down to crawl 

But it didn't look like alcohol 

The girl behind the bar says she guesses he forgot her 

I said, "Don't worry I'll get his tab 

And gave me two of whatever he had" 

And she said, "Water" 

Whatever it is,something bigger then him 

Drove him too far down to crawl 

But it didn't look like alcohol 

Didn't look like alcohol to me
