Once again, all alone I stayed too long or I left too soon Drapes are drawn On my sad little throne Some lines were crossed In our warm borrowed room After the actors left our party And all sweet illusions were gone One more drink, the bottle's empty One more word, the deed is done One bad move out of many One more war won't be won Our best work We've done our part
Our hopeless dreams Of an open heart It's getting late Let's go to bed It's all been played And it's all been said After the actors left our party And all sweet illusions were gone One more drink, the bottle's empty One more word, the deed is done One bad move out of many One more war won't be won Once again, all alone I stayed too long or I left too soon
