歌曲歌詞
Once I lived the life of wine and roses
And I drank a lot back then for one concern
Success for me lay just around the corner
I thought my social friends
Would help me make the turn
But now I'm paying for
The days of wine and roses
A victim of the drunken life I chose
Now all my social friends look down their noses
Cause I kept the wine and threw away the rose
I stood by and watched
The bottle take control of me
The turn I made was not the one I'd planned
And I watched my social
Standings slip away from me
While I watched the bottle slowly take command
And now I'm paying for
The days of wine and roses
A victim of the drunken life I chose
Now all my social friends look down their noses
Cause I kept the wine and threw away the rose
Cause I kept the wine and threw away the rose
