Is it really true what theyre saying

Are you really sure theres nobody come for me

When Im 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

I will now receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine

Just a drink, Ill get that drink, and Im feeling good

Just a drink, Ill get that drink, and Im 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 Im down

When I walk outside, there is nowhere

Children follow me, with their laughter - so cold...

Casting just a glance at the churchyard

Casting just a glance, at my painted female friend.

Now Im on my way, I am falling

Got to find some elp, ooh I will need that now

So I will receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine

Just a drink, Ill get that drink, and Im feeling good

Just a drink, Ill get that drink, and Im 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 Im down...

I will now receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine

Just a drink, Ill get that drink, and Im feeling good

Just a drink, Ill get that drink, and Im feeling fine

Just a drink to take my sorrow

Just a drink and you can blast tomorrow, now...
