[Lyric] When I Drink Beer (Mike Ryan)

When I drink beer, I know what happens
I've seen it happen, a hundred times before
I tell myself, I'll just have a couple
And I'll have a couple, and then a couple more
By that fifth one, I'm holdin' my phone
Lookin' through pictures, of me and you
And then I sit there, stare at your number
Thinkin' I shouldn't, but I always do

And oh you don't always answer
Oh it's better if you don't
'Cause oh I can just keep drinkin'
Call in a cab and head back home

But when you answer, it gets messed up
'Cause you get dressed up, and meet me here
I know it's only, because you're lonely
But that don't matter, when I drink beer

Oh layin' there beside you
Oh I know it's gonna hurt
'Cause oh there ain't nothin' better, than holdin' you
But there ain't nothin' worse
Than when I wake up and that bed is empty
That pain hits me, 'cause you ain't there
I still want you, but I can't have you
And if I can't have you, I just want a beer
Right now I'm thirsty, for a cold one
As much as I want one, I'm steerin' clear
'Cause I'm still hurtin', from the last time
And its been a long time, since I drank beer

So I'll take water, or maybe Coca-Cola
'Cause I know what happens, when I drink beer
