Whiskey & Dust — Jeffery Horton

Verse 1

Boots by the door
Same scuff on the heel as last year
Barstool groove in the hardwood
They still keep your glass on the top rear shelf

Chorus

Whiskey and dust
That’s all that’s left of us
Just a ring on the table
And a ghost where you used to touch
Whiskey and dust
On this love I can’t sweep up

Verse 2

Your jacket hangs
One sleeve turned inside on the chair
That picture frame leans sideways
Like it’s tired of pretending you’re still here

Chorus

Bridge

I breathe you in
From the rag on the counter
Your laughter stuck
In the crack of the floor
I keep wiping
Keep wiping
But you’re stained in the boards

Chorus
