Civet - Gin And Tonic Lyrics

Drink like a fish, sink or swim
I'm sinking all the way down
I drown myself in the bottle again
'Cause your promises let me down

Gin and tonic, hit the floor
I'll be comin' back for more
'Cause baby, that's the way I like it
And I know I have to be strong
To hold on to what we once had
But now it's gone

[Chorus:]
Life is slippin' and I can't hold on
Lost control of myself
I'll be leavin' and I won't look back, I'd
Rather be alone than waste my life with you

Each morning I struggle to face the new day
I can barely look you in the eye
Each night I welcome that comfortable haze
On the bar when you're making me cry

Gin and tonic, hit the floor
I'll be comin' back for more
'Cause baby, that's the way I like it
And I know I have to be strong
To hold on to what we once had
But now it's gone

[Chorus]

With you, with you
Waste my life with you
Whoa whoa-oh, whoa whoa-oh

I was tryin' to find a way to hide
The doubts I had inside 'cause
I thought we had a chance to make it
But now I'm stronger and I
Love you no longer and
Tough shit if you can't take it!

And I know I have to be strong
To hold on to what we once had
But now it's gone

I was slippin' and I couldn't hold on
Lost control of myself
Now I'm gone and I'll never look back
So much better off and
So much happier
I'm so glad I didn't waste my life with you
