Yesterday's Wine

The clock is ticking rhythmically
The candle's growing dim
The radio is playing love songs
That I used to sing to him
A tear is rolling down my cheek
A wine glass in my hand
My mind is searching desperately
Off in a distant land
A land of sweet remembrances
Where flowers are in bloom
A history of a better time
Beneath the silver moon
I let the tears flow freely
I feel my heart grow numb
I light another habit
To which I have succumb
I fill my wine glass once again
I might as well enjoy
There's no one here to share it with
These thoughts I must destroy
I sing the love songs to myself
Somehow it's not the same
They used to have some meaning
When I used to speak your name
Sweet nothings, gentle whispers
An ode of lasting love
We used to sit for hours
Beneath the stars above
I finish off the bottle
I lay down and start to weep
But in my dreams I'll find you
As I drift off to sleep
