Jack Daniel's in the Mornin'

I was drinking Jack Daniel's in the mornin'
Because old sorrows came back without warnin'
He had grown much colder
As this new year grew older

He said he would love me to his dying day
Now someone better has courted him away
The precious gift in a drawer unused
While another keeps him amused

I'm interrupted by the telephone's blare
I answered to find your gentle voice there
Your soothing drawl comforted me
You made me look and truly see

You talked of the many things I should know
That I had so much left in me I need to show
You wouldn't let me feel like zero
You have truly become my hero

You took the time to listen to what I said and hear it
You helped me heel my broken heart and spirit
I don't want our relationship to ever end
I'm sure it won't for you are simply my friend
