This is a song about a young couple who were just almost at the finish line and about to walk down the isle, but called it off last minute for whatever the truthful reasons. They still look back thinking on those great times together, and continue to work thru each and every heart-broken, "drink it off their mind" day.
Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.
Yes, YES, YOU got it Brad! I was thirsty and wanted to get back to it!- LOL! Thanks for the feedback and glad ya liked it!

V1:
Cherry slushes in lime-aide
You’d taste mine, I’d buy two.
We’d liven’ big cups, with Tito’s Handmade good stuff 80 proof.
Talkin’ big dreams to the bottom.
You’d fill my mind, I’d hold you.
That never got old.
Cold courage confessions with you.
Chorus:
But it’s a cold coffee mornin’
A bitter beer at noon.
Whisky lullabies at sundown
Just tryin’ to sleep without you
Midnight’s dry thirst is chokin,
this lonely memory to blue.
All that’ll quench my thirst now.
Is a tall, cool drink of you.
V2:
That red wine your daddy made.
It was sweet fine, like you.
We’d sip it in red cups, without spillin’ what's up. That was, so cool.
We had plans for matching rings,
my dress, roses, gold venue.
that never got drunk.
‘Cause we poured out the truth.
Bridge:
I’d buy it and try it, drink it up again & again.
I’d chug it, and shotgun it, be love drunk on it
.…………Oh, I do.
Chorus:
But it’s a cold coffee mornin’
A bitter beer at noon.
Whisky lullabies at sundown
Just tryin’ to sleep without you
Midnight’s dry thirst is chokin,
this lonely memory to blue!
All that’ll quench my thirst now.
Is a tall, cool drink of you.
Yeah, Midnight’s dry thirst is chokin,
this lonely memory to blue!
All that’ll quench my thirst now.
Is a tall, cool drink of you!

Nice! Listening to it I think you cut verse 2 in half and get us back to the chorus quicker. Great groove!
