In this poignant track, the artists use alcohol as a metaphor for a relationship that was once intoxicating but ultimately unsustainable. The lyrics depict the transformation from revelry to regret, highlighting how the absence of a partner can lead to significant lifestyle changes, including sobriety. The refrain "You're the reason I quit drinking" underscores the profound impact of the relationship's end, suggesting that removing alcohol is akin to removing the person from their life – both are painful yet necessary for healing. The song resonates with themes of loss, change, and the struggle to find oneself after a breakup. #Heartbreak #Sobriety #Transformation
I Quit Drinking
Lyrics
We used to be the life of the party
Body to body
Dance the night away
Shoot tequila straight
Obsessed with each other
And down for another
Round until last call
Wasn't alcohol
Keeping us up 'til the sun came around
Thought we'd stay drunk forever but now
You're the reason there's no whiskey anywhere inside this house
You're the reason all my friends know I don't go downtown
You're the reason I hate champagne, never used to turn it down
You're the only thing I want when one drop hits my mouth
Baby, you're the reason I quit drinking
We used to be dizzy all morning
Hungover, pouring
Cups of coffee black
Kiss and crawl right back
Under the covers
And down for another
Hour in that bed
Now I'm here instead
Waking up sober, it feels kinda nice
Except that I can't sleep at night
You're the reason there's no whiskey anywhere inside this house
You're the reason all my friends know I don't go downtown
You're the reason I hate champagne, never used to turn it down
You're the only thing I want when one drop hits my mouth
Baby, you're the reason I quit drinking
I quit thinking (I quit thinking)
Staring at the ceiling (oh)
And all my cabernet is down the kitchen sink and (it's down the kitchen sink, yeah)
I quit mixing (I quit mixing)
All my drinks and feelings
It's not fixing that you're gone
You're the reason there's no whiskey anywhere inside this house
You're the reason all my friends know I don't go downtown
You're the reason I hate champagne, never used to turn it down
You're the only thing I want when one drop hits my mouth (the only thing I want, baby)
Baby, you're the reason (oh)
You're the reason I quit drinking
