when moonlight is tinted with teardrops
and teardrops fill goblets meant for wine
bathe in the salt..drink of lifes malt
order a double of lifes moonshine
paint the salt on the rim forget about him
get drunk on the rocks and add lime

when long stem red roses burn to ashes
and smoke lingers within the thorns
inhale the fragrance, the remembrance
velvet roses will again be reborn
in the vase of love.. the fate of lifes glove
a teardrop in the smoke may linger on...
