Tonight in a bar alone I'm sitting Apart from the laughter and the cheers While scenes from the past rise before me Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer A vision of someone who loved me Brings a lone silent tear to my eye I know that my life's been a failure Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer I'm seeing the road that I've traveled A road paved with heartaches and tears I'm seeing the past that I've wasted While watchin' the bubbles in my beer I think of the heart that I've broken All the golden chances that have passed me by The dreams that I've made, now are empty As empty as the bubbles in my beer As empty as the bubbles in my beer
