Twilight Alehouse Lyrics – Unknown
Lyrics: Twilight Alehouse
Album: Unknown
Artist: Genesis
1971. released as b-side of "i know what i like" single, 1974.
Is it really true what they’re saying
Are you really sure there’s nobody come for me
When i’m walking home there is no-one
Once there was a house, full of laughter – so warm
Trying to pretend there is someone
Someone who will care when i need it
I will now receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine
Just a drink, i’ll get that drink, and i’m feeling good
Just a drink, i’ll get that drink, and i’m feeling fine
Just a drink to take my sorrow
Just a drink and you can blast tomorrow
Just a drink to make me feel like a man again
Now i’m down
When i walk outside, there is nowhere
Children follow me, with their laughter – so cold…
Casting just a glance at the churchyard
Casting just a glance, at my painted female friend.
Now i’m on my way, i am falling
Got to find some ‘elp, ooh i will need that now
So i will receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine
Just a drink, i’ll get that drink, and i’m feeling good
Just a drink, i’ll get that drink, and i’m feeling fine
Just a drink to take my sorrow
Just a drink and you can blast tomorrow
Just a drink to make me feel like a man again
Now i’m down…
I will now receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine
Just a drink, i’ll get that drink, and i’m feeling good
Just a drink, i’ll get that drink, and i’m feeling fine
Just a drink to take my sorrow
Just a drink and you can blast tomorrow, now…
