Alone in this house again tonight
I got the TV on, the sound turned down and a bottle of wine
There's pictures of you and I on the walls around me
The way that it was and could have been surrounds me
I'll never get over you walkin' away
[Chorus]
I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I want to cry
Would it help if I turned a sad song on
"All By Myself" would sure hit me hard now that you're gone
Or maybe unfold some old yellow lost love letters
It's gonna hurt bad before it gets better
But I'll never get over you by hidin' this way
[Chorus: x2]
I got the TV on, the sound turned down and a bottle of wine
There's pictures of you and I on the walls around me
The way that it was and could have been surrounds me
I'll never get over you walkin' away
[Chorus]
I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I want to cry
Would it help if I turned a sad song on
"All By Myself" would sure hit me hard now that you're gone
Or maybe unfold some old yellow lost love letters
It's gonna hurt bad before it gets better
But I'll never get over you by hidin' this way
[Chorus: x2]

it's about a lost love and he's been bottling up his emotions and on that night, he's letting them all spill over.
this is a great song to listen to when you just need to cry and/or mourn.
-I feel like crying tonight. With how things have been with me, yeah, my life's a mess and almost every night is described on this song perfectly. Although wallowing and being stuck over someone isn't exactly the right way to handle things, sometimes a good cry is needed.
"But I'm just drunk enough
To let go of my pain
To hell with my pride
Let it fall like rain from my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry."
This is what I think of every time i'm drunk and about to call an ex girlfriend. To me it kinda seems like he is ready to tell his ex how he feels about everything.
"The way that it was
And could've been surrounds me"
But I do like Keith Urban.
