It Didn`t Look Like Alcohol Lyrics

It Didn`t Look Like Alcohol lyrics

(Rebecca Lynn Howard/Trey Bruce)



Didn't look like alcohol to me

But
his hands were shakin' like a willow leaf

Reaching out for one more
drink

He didn't look like a loser to me

But he was lost behind his
tears

Something had to drive him in here

He don't fit in with this
crowd

Somewhere,sometime he was proud



There's a storm stretched
out

A million miles across his heart

And a war he's fighting

In the
dark

Whatever it is,something bigger then him

Drove him too far down to
crawl

But it didn't look like alcohol



Thought I heard him say
somebody's name

But I pretended like I didn't hear

I just wished that I
could disappear

He was cracking like a desert of burning shame

Pleading
with someone that I couldn't see

He might as well've been on his
knees

Like a bomb tickin' ready to blow

He got up in a hurry to
go



There's a storm stretched out

A million miles across his
heart

And a war he's fighting

In the dark

Whatever it is,something
bigger then him

Drove him too far down to crawl

But it didn't look like
alcohol



The girl behind the bar says she guesses he forgot her

I
said, "Don't worry I'll get his tab

And gave me two of whatever he
had"

And she said, "Water"



Whatever it is,something bigger then
him

Drove him too far down to crawl

But it didn't look like
alcohol

Didn't look like alcohol to me
