A Perfect Cocktail [early demo]

Words & Music (c) David Harley

And yes, I agree that blaming the person for whom you have an unrequited passion is not healthy or politically correct. This is a work of fiction, not autobiography. 🙂 Now I have to learn it, as I’ve promised to sing it next Saturday.

Backup:

Who’s driving nails into my lonely bed?
Who sent images scurrying through my head?
You…

We mixed a perfect cocktail, you and I
How come now my cup is dry?

How come these days I drink so much alone?
Who’s to blame if I end up stoned?
You…

And we mixed a perfect cocktail, you and I
How come now my cup is dry?

Who leaves me here, lying all alone?
Who asks six weeks later why I didn’t phone?
You…

And we mixed a perfect cocktail, you and I
How come now my cup is dry?

Who’s driving nails into my lonely bed?
Who sent images scurrying through my head?
You…

And we mixed a perfect cocktail, you and I
How come now my cup is dry?
