Twilight Alehouse Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Is it really true, what they're saying?
Are you really sure, there's nobody come for me?
When I'm walking home, there is no one
Once there was a house, full of laughter, so warm
Trying to pretend there is someone
Someone who will care when I need it
[Pre-Chorus]
I will now receive my comfort
Conjured by the magic power of wine
[Chorus]
Just a drink, a little drink, and I'm feeling good
Just a drink, a little drink, and I'm feeling fine
Just a drink to take my sorrow, just a drink and you can blast tomorrow
Just a drink to make me feel like a man again, now I'm down
[Verse 2]
When I walk outside, there is nowhere
Children follow me, with their laughter, so cold (*laughter*)
Casting just a glance at the churchyard
Casting just a glance at my painted female friend
Now I'm on my way, I am falling
Got to find some 'elp, ooh I will need that now
[Pre-Chorus]
So I will receive my comfort
Conjured by the magic power of wine
[Chorus]
Just a drink, a little drink, and I'm feeling good
Just a drink, a little drink, and I'm feeling fine
Just a drink to take my sorrow, just a drink and you can blast tomorrow
Just a drink to make me feel like a man again, now I'm down
[Pre-Chorus]
I will now receive my comfort
Conjured by the magic power of wine
[Chorus]
Just a drink, a little drink, and I'm feeling good
Just a drink, a little drink, and I'm feeling fine
Just a drink to take my sorrow, just a drink and you can blast tomorrow, now
