A Song For - Wino

Ribbons of love, please keep me true sane

Until I reach home on the morrow

Never, never to wander again

I’m weak and I’m weary of sorrow

London to Dublin, Australia to Perth

I gazed at your sky, I tasted your earth

Sung out my heart for what it was worth

Never again shall I ramble

There’s nowhere left in this world where to go

My arms, my legs, they’re a-trembling

Thoughts both clouded and blue as the sky

Not even worth the remembering

Now, as I stumble and reel to my bed

All that I’ve done, all that I’ve said

Means nothing to me, I’d soon as be dead

All of this world be forgotten

No words of comfort, no words of advice

Nothing to offer a stranger

Gone the love, gone the spite

It just doesn’t matter no longer

My sky’s getting far;

the ground’s getting close

My self going crazy, the way that it does

I’ll lie on my pillow and sleep if I must

Too late to wish I’d been stronger

Too late to wish I’d been stronger
