She unscrews the top of

a new whiskey bottle

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 tv

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 shed 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 shed say

that shed 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

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
