Ernest Tubb - I Reached For The Wine lyrics

My eyes are perfect but now I see I'm blind Because I didn't notice all those danger signs I tried and tried to tell you oh so many times You should reach for your baby but I reached for the wine Remember I told you that someday you would find Just you and your bottle at the end of the line You'd still be here in my arms and not just on my mind If you'd reach for your baby like I reached for the wine If I could reach you just one more time I'd show you I love you much more than the wine Many nights my pillow feels these arms of mine For they couldn't reach you cause I reached for the wine [ steel ] I'm sure you'll find someone who will be kind and true That's the things I wanted but I wanted them from you Our love could have lasted until the end of time If I'd reach for you baby like I reached for the wine If I could reach you... My arms couldn't reach you cause I reached for the wine
