Remember the days when we were young and I went away lookin' for some other one I left you in the cold with no one to hold why am I always the last one to know I turned and I tossed sleepless and lost wanting you back I'd have paid any cost my only friend my bottle of gin all of the places that we could have been I knew they'd find us together again feeling so dry like I just might cry why did it take so long for me to stop and wonder why when out of the blue I ran into you as It turned out you'd been missing me too now I've come home and I'm not alone drinking myself as thin as skin and bone my only friend my bottle of gin
