Wine After Whiskey

Carrie Underwood · Blown Away [2012]

Once upon a time our world was on fire

And I loved to watch it burn

Wild and reckless

Never any limits

Guess I had a lot to learn

Cause fire turns to embers

Embers to ashes that blow away too soon

Now everything after you is



Like having wine after whiskey

It went from "do anything for you babe"

To "you don't even miss me"

Once you've tasted a love that strong you can't go back

And you can't settle on anything less

And that's what gets me

It's like having wine after whiskey



Looking back I guess it was really for the best

Still you're something that I crave

Even though I know it was right to let you go

You're a habit hard to break

I got used to being high and nothing that I try

Seems good enough right now

It's all so watered down



Like having wine after whiskey

It went from "do anything for you babe"

To "you don't even miss me"

Once you've tasted a love that strong

You can't go back and you can't settle on anything less

And that's what gets me

It's like having wine after whiskey



Once you've tasted a love that strong you can't go back

And you can't settle on anything less

And that's what gets me

It's like having wine

It's like having wine after whiskey
