Wine and Roses

We were the lovers kind one summer time.
But that was when our love was dancing.
We sang in lovers rhyme line after line,
back when our love was dancing.
Back when our love was laughing.
And then the revolution took its turn.
And then the new pollution creeping.
And there was no solution to be learned.
So the love was left sleeping.
.or were we dreaming?
Every now and then I get wondering where we’re going.
Hopeless and lonely, holding our treasures and tokens-
letters for no one.
Do you remember when we got drunk on wine and roses,
holy and golden, knowing now as the night closes-
that was our moment to live?
Some days, the rebel in us kicks up dirt.
Some days, the soldier in us surrenders.
But as we get older, we live for better or for worse.
Playing the self-defenders.
The saddest surrender.
Every now and then I get wondering where we’re going.
Hopeless and lonely, holding our treasures and tokens-
letters for no one.
Do you remember when we got drunk on wine and roses,
holy and golden, knowing now as the night closes-
that was our moment to live?
Now the dagger dark plays the most painful part.
And I wonder do you see like we when you close your eyes,
how we lay high under young sunlight.
Do you remember when we got drunk on wine and roses?
