Whisky Lullabies lyrics

When I was a child

They'd ask me where it hurt

And wipe the tears from my eyes

Sure embraces,

Gentle forehead kisses

Making sure that I was alright

As I grew older and the nights grew shorter

I no longer cared where it hurt

All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies

There to cradle me to sleep

All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies

There to cradle me to sleep

Scars they heal in time

The raw wounds on my mind

They aren't as easily fixed

You can't mend what isn't broken

Kind words are rarely spoken

In time I will learn this

But I grow older

And the nights grow shorter

Drowning as I sink or swim

All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies

There to cradle me to sleep

All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies

There to cradle me to sleep

Sticks and stones they break me to the bone

Words they cut they will always hurt me

Please be my saving Grace

Please be my saving Grace

How to answer all my prayers

Please be my saving Grace

All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies

There to cradle me to sleep

And all I hear is, Whisky Lullabies

There to cradle me to sleep

Sticks and stones they break me to the bone

Words they cut, they will always hurt me

Sticks and stones they break me to the bone

Words they cut, they will always hurt me
