Down among the wines and spirits[00:00:02]
Where a man gets what he merits[00:00:08]
Once he was written in letters of nine feet tall[00:00:14]
Now he finds how far he's fallen[00:00:19]
Since he set his mind on her completely[00:00:24]
Oh well I guess[00:00:30]
That you mustn't have seen him lately[00:00:31]
Walking around with a pain that never ceases[00:00:36]
He starts to speak and then he falls to pieces[00:00:41]
Down among the wines and spirits[00:00:47]
Where a man gets what he merits[00:00:53]
Lives with the echoing words[00:00:58]
Of their final quarrel[00:01:00]
The vacant chamber and the empty barrel[00:01:04]
But as he picks himself up from a sawdust floor[00:01:14]
Clicks his fingers to that swinging door[00:01:23]
Suddenly he's calling out more more more[00:01:28]
I'm twice the foolish man I was before[00:01:39]
Down among the wines and spirits[00:01:45]
Bubbles escaping from him[00:01:54]
From the rim of a glass of grape[00:01:55]
She sails through his memory[00:01:58]
Just like a ship of chaplet[00:02:01]
As it started to sink [00:02:05]
He was drinking to drown his sorrows[00:02:06]
That fill his nights[00:02:11]
And they empty his tomorrows[00:02:12]
But as he picks himself[00:02:21]
Up from a sawdust floor[00:02:24]
Clicks his fingers to that swinging door[00:02:29]
Suddenly he's calling out more more more[00:02:35]
Speaks of invisible things he hardly credits[00:02:46]
Down among down among[00:02:52]
The wines and spirits[00:02:57]
