Jake’s Piano / Long Island - Zach Bryan

I finally quit smokin' cigarettes

And I don't go downtown drinkin' 'til it's dawn

The best parts of you are here, but you're still gone

And, Lord, I've been tryin' to smile like you told me

Laugh like the old me, it comes out all wrong

The best parts of you are here, but you're still gone

And I still tie that double knot

The one you taught, that gets caught on the banks

The best parts of you are here, but you still ain't

I finally quit smokin' cigarettes

And I don't go downtown drinkin' 'til it's dawn

The best parts of you are here but you're still gone

I heard your father got sick of Long Island

I've been tryin' like hell to call

My mind ain't well and I just can't tell you why

I heard they shut down the old bar we'd go to when we needed rest

We'd always stay out too late Tuesday nights

You said I was the perfect gentleman

You used to hold me by my gentle hands

These ain't the hopeful hands you held before

And I've been drinkin' so much lately, it seems a damn double blade

'Cause when I'm drunk I dream you're dancin' down the shore

I heard your father got sick on Long Island

I've been tryin' like hell to call

My mind ain't well and I just can't tell you why

I heard they shut down the old bar we'd go to when we needed rest

We'd always stay out too late Tuesday nights

I heard your father got sick on Long Island

I've been tryin' like hell to call

My mind ain't well and I just can't tell you why

I heard they shut down the old bar we'd go to when we needed rest

We'd always stay out too late Tuesday nights
