Half a lifetime drinking red, red wine
In my trailer on the front porch
I'll be fine
Several Hours with the flower-beds
Don't disturb me with your memories
I'm half-dead
And I would tell you that I love you
if I still had air that I could breathe
Oh I wouldn't leave you alone waiting only for me
I'll see you back in 1993
Make a visit to the restaurant
Creature comforts extra gravy with
your steak
Big mistake you ghostly debutant
No-one took a first-aid course back
in those days
And I would tell you that I love you
if you still had air that you could breathe
Oh I wouldn't leave you alone waiting only for me
Yeah, I would tell you that I love you
if you still had air that you could breathe
Oh I wouldn't leave you alone waiting only for me
I'll see you back in 1993
