Verse 1
I think I had too much to drink
Because I’m beginning to think
A little too much about the past
Like this glass here in front of me
I never realize until it’s empty
That nothing good ever lasts
Just here, spinning round on this carousel
Waiting on heaven, or waiting on hell
Waiting for the same damn thing as everyone else
Adieu, bon voyage, fare thee well
I guess
I just can’t get enough
Verse 2
Bartender, pour me something strong
So I can’t remember just where it all went wrong
When I was a younger man
And please, please play my favorite song
I promise it isn’t too long
Tonight all that damn jukebox has played are Saint Valentine shams
Ah, forget it…fill up my glass again!
Have another drink with me, my friend
Let’s toast to living and living free
See, my glass represents all eternity
Fill it up again as soon as it’s empty
Just make sure you wash away all that memory
(improvise) And on
And on and on and on it goes
And on and on and on and on it goes
And on and on and on and on it goes
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on
Verse 3
Bartender, you’ve got all my money
Please, please, please have mercy on me
And fill my glass until my mind reaches the sublime
I promise you’ll never see me again
I’ll disappear into the night like some great magician
And I’ll never come back until that clock strikes thirteen times
Magic? That’s something I happen to know
I learned from an old man on the side of the road
Somewhere in the middle of the night on Highway Ninety‑Four
What…
What was I just talking about?
Where was I? Oh yeah, can’t seem to figure out
Why I’ve spent so much time trying to find the easy route
Man, all the pretty girls are out tonight
I think if I play my cards right
That one there, with the red hair, might take me home
