The days of wine and roses laugh and run away like a
child at play
Through the meadow land toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before
The lone-ly night discloses just a passing breeze filled
with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you
[brief instrumental break]
The days of wine and roses
[more instrumental-rest of the first verse]
The lonely-----the night discloses just a passing breeze
filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you
