Elliot Poston : On To The Next One Lyrics

"On To The Next One"

I thought that I'd found perfect

I thought I'd give you my last name

Tell me was it worth it

Pushing yourself so far away

I thought we had something special

I never thought you'd do me wrong

Now I'm turning up this bottle

Trying not to pick up this phone

And I'm just sitting here staring off the front porch thinking 'bout

If what we had could ever come back around

How something so good could be over and gone so soon

Is it goodbye forever, is it see you later

Will I ever know what went wrong

Love shouldn't be like a shot of whiskey

But on to the next one

I wake up every day to something new

I wear a smile to hide the pain

I'm still searching for a love that's true

A love to take away my shame

I thought by now that I'd be over you

I thought by now I could have moved on

Now I'm back to chugging this bottle

Trying not to pick up this phone

And I'm just sitting here staring off the front porch thinking 'bout

If what we had could ever come back around

How something so good could be over and gone so soon

Is it goodbye forever, is it see you later

Will I ever know what went wrong

Love shouldn't be like a shot of whiskey

But on to the next one

Is there nowhere safe for me to go?

I can’t be the crazy one in the room

Yeah, I'm on to the next one

And I'm just sitting here staring off the front porch thinking bout

If what we had could ever come back around

How something so good could be over and gone so soon

Is it goodbye forever, is it see you later

Will I ever know what went wrong

Love shouldn't be like a shot of whiskey

But on to the next one

Love shouldn't be like a shot of whiskey

But on to the next one

Yeah, I'm on to the next one

Yeah, I'm on to the next one
