story behind the song: Don Juan later in life, or any serial monogamist
Lyrics
once upon some time
of stars and moons and dreams
never seem to mind
life's as hopeless as it seems
another bottle to relax
another pill to let me sleep
another day i forgot to ask
why you aren't here with me
once upon some time
of love and hate and wars
never seem to mind
i never find out who you are
another glass sitting emptied
another vial to be filled
another day where my memory
is leaving like you will
in drags my morning coffee
with the dregs of misery
somehow drowning destiny
in what was meant to be
once upon some time
of hope and cares and hugs
never seem to mind
they're no longer what you want
another chug on the bottle
another distraught solo draught
another day where the throttle
of we is powered back
once upon some time
of life and death and dust
never seem to mind
the ins and outs so much
another shooter from a testtube
another round for those fast friends
another day knowing you
and i have reached the end
in drags my morning coffee
with the dregs of misery
somehow drowning destiny
in what was meant to be
once upon some time
of stars and moons and dreams
never seem to mind
life's as hopeless as it seems
another bottle to relax
another pill to let me sleep
another day i forget to ask
why you aren't here with me
