(Verse 1)
You left me standin’ on this dusty road,
Our story reached an ice-cold dead end.
Ever since you packed your love and rode,
My world’s been swirling in a whirlwind.
Oh, I’m eating baloney all day and night,
Coffee’s watered down, it ain’t got that bite.
Your leaving’s made my whole world a mess,
I got nothing left but loneliness.
(Chorus)
‘Cause you were the one, the one I love,
You, my light, my morning dove.
But now I’m living on baloney and hardship,
Whiskey and tears, that’s all that’s left in my flip.
(Verse 2)
The rooms we laughed in now echo silence,
The bed we shared now only hold my sighs.
I’m whirling in a pit of loneliness,
Each sunrise screams out your goodbyes.
I’m getting by on baloney and pain,
Sunshine’s just a reminder of the rain,
You took my heart when you left that door,
And now all I got is this worn-out floor.
(Chorus)
Yeah, you were the one, the one I miss,
The sweetness of your tender kiss.
Now it’s just baloney and endless night,
Since you closed the door and took flight.
(Bridge)
Baloney for breakfast, baloney for tea,
Baloney for dinner, ain’t a sight to see.
Your love was sweet, oh it felt so right,
Now it’s baloney filling up my cold, lonely nights.
(Chorus)
‘Cause you were the one, my burning sun,
Now I’m just a river run dry, you’re gone.
I’m living on baloney, and it’s a rough ride,
Without you, babe, I got nothing to hide.
(Outro)
Oh, I’m living on baloney and hollow dreams,
Floating in a world that ain’t what it seems.
‘Cause you were the one, the one I adore,
And without your love, everything’s a bore.
