Yesterday I had a future and I was happy

I had your love and the whole wide world was mine

I had money to spend and a woman who called me darling

Oh that was before I found the wine

Cause before I found the wine my life had meaning

There were happy days at my house all the time

I remeber when you told me I hung the moon and made the sunhine

Yes that was before I found the wine

[ steel ]

How I wish that I could go back to your world

Hold you close again and know that you are mine

And I wish that I could hear you say I love you

Just the way you did before I found the wine

Cause before I found the wine...
