empty
empty bottles
lying side by side
used up empty bottles
remembering long lost wine
keep our empty bottles
making empty wine
marking our intentions
sadly out of time
and the summers
make you lazy
a day at a time
and the company evades you
passing you by
but i do love you
against all odds
though you don't know
what i want
we're much poorer
than that bottle
more foolish than that wine
maybe we can make it
though we failed before
you keep getting closer
closer to me once more
and i'll try to
entertain you
a day at a time
try to make myself
much clearer
from your wine
i do love you
against all odds
though you don't know
what i want
seeing you and seeing me
we're much poorer
than that bottle
more foolish
than that wine
