And shuffles about in her candle lit hovel,
Like some kind of witch with blue fingers in mittens
She smells like the cat and the
neighbours she sickens,
The black and white t.v. has long seen a picture
The cross on
the wall is a permanent fixture,
The postman delivers the final reminders
She sells off
her silver and poodles in China.
Drinks to remember, I me and myself
And winds up
the clock
And knocks dust from the shelf
Home is a love that I miss very much
So
the past has been bottled and labelled with love.
During the war time an American pilot
Made every air raid a time of excitement,
She moved to his prairie and married the Texan
She learnt from a distance how love was a lesson,
He became drinker and she became
mother
She knew that one day she'd be one or the other,
He ate himself older, drunk
himself dizzy
Proud of her features, she kept herself pretty.
Drinks to remember,
I me and myself
And winds up the clock
And knocks dust from the shelf
Home is a
love that I miss very much
So the past has been bottled and labelled with love.
He
like a cowboy died drunk in his slumber
Out on the porch in the middle of summer,
She
crossed the ocean back home to her family
But they had retired to roads that were sandy,
She moved home alone without friends or relations
Lived in a world full of age reservation,
On moth eaten armchairs she'd say that she'd sod all
The friends who had left her to
drink from the bottle .
Drinks to remember, I me and myself
And winds up the clock
And knocks dust from the shelf
Home is a love that I miss very much
So the past
has been bottled and labelled with love.
The past has been bottled and labelled with love.
The past - has been bottled and labelled with love. | | | |
