This is a song I wrote about finding, unexpectedly, a likeminded soul that offered welcome conversation, mutual passion for the world's offerings, and ultimately, the magic potion we call love.
lyrics
Line me up
With the rest of the bottles on the bar
Kick 'em back one by one where the liquor is hard
Tell me how your love is real with every new drink you start
Appeal to my alcohol heart, appeal to my alcohol heart
Night after night, on the same damn stool down on the end
Jim and Jack are my closest friends
Then she pulls her wine next to my lies
And I felt like a star
A star with an alcohol heart
I felt love in my alcohol heart
She could've sat with Mr. muscle
And hung on his arm
Or Bobby Joe the pilot
Who couldn't see past her charm
She saw a lot of men sound the alarm
But instead she chose to sit here at my end of the bar
I paid her tab
She knew right then I was a real good man
An off balance drunk who has taken a stand
In the past he would've fallen for reaching out this far
To touch another alcohol heart
To touch another alcohol heart
To feel another alcohol heart
I found love in this alcohol heart
I found love in this alcohol heart
I found love in this alcohol heart
