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 ember, embers to ashes that blow away too soon


[Chorus]


Now everything's 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


[Chorus]


It's also 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


[Outro]

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
