Текст песни

[Verse 1:]
Living hard was easy when I was young and bullet-proof,
I had no chains to bind me, just a guitar and a roof,
Emptied every bottle, when I poured, I never missed,
I had blood shot eyes at twenty-five, or was it twenty-six?
Didn't seem to matter what price I had to pay,
‘Cause anything worth having, I'd just lose anyway,
Friends worried about me, they'd asked if I was sick,
Thought I wouldn't die at twenty-five, or was it twenty-six?

[Chorus:]
Those two years run together like whiskey over ice,
Melted into memories like somebody else's life,
I'm glad to say, I've come around,
But if I could have one wish,
I'd like another try at twenty-five,
Or was it twenty-six?

[Verse 2:]
Met a girl from Georgia, smart and pretty, college grad,
I thought my luck was changing, but then it all went bad,
I guess I fell in love with her, all it took was just one kiss,
But then she said goodbye at twenty-five, or was it twenty-six?

[Chorus:]
Those two years run together like whiskey over ice,
Melted into memories like somebody else's life,
I'm glad to say, I've come around,
But if I could have one wish,
I'd like another try at twenty-five,
Or was it twenty-six?

[Verse 3:]
I've been down that road before, almost as far as hell,
Deception or redemption, I guess only time will tell.
I have faith and the knowledge that God gave us a gift
I couldn't hide at twenty-five, or was it twenty-six?

[Chorus:]
Those two years run together like whiskey over ice,
Melted into memories like somebody else's life,
I'm glad to say, I've come around,
But if I could have one wish,
I'd like another try at twenty-five,
Or was it twenty-six?
