lyrics

i'd like a glass of wine
as my heart does crave from time to time
my heart so saddened
by the dimming lamp, atop this lonely chest of drawers
to fade into its velvet red
and slowly let it fill my head
with evidence of love across my walls
for even at my best it makes me pause
and question my intentions, or
the feeling that "succumbs" in such rare moments
for joy is such a rarity
that it seems odd to visit me
bringing to my fire, more firewood
we are no more than strangers now
no less than friends from childhood
but every now and then, somehow, she seems to find me

so
we break the ice
and how better than a glass of wine
to unlock this sad and lonely chest of drawers
and as the hours pass i notice that
her glass is barely finished, yet,
still the bottle rolls about the floor
and her face is solemn as i break in two
she follows with her eyes of bluee
as my spirit falls in stupor about the carpet
and i know how it must look to her
yet i can't wipe my dampened eyes and dry
these lonely tears of laughter
though nothing could be sadder
and so she smiles as she walks away
and i shrink back, and with dismay, I mumble,
"my... my... i could have had her"
