I used to think it was all in the drink
Dulu aku pikir semua ini karena minuman
It made him the way he was
Itu membuatnya jadi seperti itu
He swore he'd change, poured it all down the drain
Dia bersumpah akan berubah, membuang semuanya ke saluran
And finally he'd given up
Dan akhirnya dia menyerah

But tonight in the kitchen
Tapi malam ini di dapur
I sat there and listened
Aku duduk di sana dan mendengarkan
To words he could never take back
Kata-kata yang tidak bisa dia tarik kembali
I didn't see no Jack or Jim Beam
Aku tidak melihat Jack atau Jim Beam
He was drinking his coffee black
Dia hanya minum kopi hitam

Chorus:
Oh, I wish he'd been drinkin' whiskey
Oh, seandainya dia minum wiski
When he told me he didn't love me
Saat dia bilang dia tidak mencintaiku
But he was stone cold sober
Tapi dia benar-benar sadar
He meant what he said
Dia serius dengan apa yang dia katakan
And he did what he did
Dan dia melakukan apa yang dia lakukan
'Cause in his heart it was already over
Karena di hatinya, semuanya sudah berakhir
The truth doesn't lie
Kebenaran tidak berbohong
So I can't deny it like I've always done before
Jadi aku tidak bisa menyangkalnya seperti yang selalu kulakukan sebelumnya
Oh, I wish he'd been drinkin' whiskey
Oh, seandainya dia minum wiski
When he told me he didn't love me no more
Saat dia bilang dia tidak mencintaiku lagi

He used to come home drunk to the bone
Dulu dia pulang dalam keadaan mabuk berat
After he'd stayed out all night
Setelah dia begadang semalaman
He'd start slammin' doors and pacin' the floors
Dia mulai membanting pintu dan mondar-mandir
And we'd always end up in a fight
Dan kami selalu berakhir berkelahi

But tonight there's no screaming
Tapi malam ini tidak ada teriakan
Just the sound of him leaving
Hanya suara dia pergi
And the silence that rings in my ears
Dan keheningan yang menggema di telingaku
This house is dry, but for the very first time
Rumah ini sepi, tapi untuk pertama kalinya
I wish there was a bottle 'round here
Aku berharap ada sebotol di sini

Repeat Chorus
Ulangi Reff

Yeah, I wish he'd been drinkin' whiskey
Yeah, seandainya dia minum wiski
When he told me he didn't love me no more
Saat dia bilang dia tidak mencintaiku lagi
