Tonight The Bottle Let Me Down — текст песни (Elvis Costello)

Tonight the bottle let me down

It let your memory come around

The one true friend I thought Id found

Tonight the bottle let me down



Ive always had a bottle I could turn to

And lately Ive been turnin every day

But the wine dont take effect the way it used to

And Im hurtin in old familiar ways



Tonight the bottle let me down

It let your memory come around

The one true friend I thought Id found

Tonight the bottle let me down



Each night I leave the bar room when its over

Not feeling any pain at closing time

But tonight your memory found me much too sober

I cant drink enough to keep you off my mind



Tonight the bottle let me down

It let your memory come around

The one true friend I thought Id found

Tonight the bottle let me down
