The Cocktail Party - The Cure

Blood of Mary fills my glass

Spins crimson in the gloom

Sipping on another cocktail

Waking up in another room

Gaze out on the river

Of the gleaming city sky

Sipping on another cocktail

Watching the world go by

Surge of twilight

Blazing shadows

Seeing things not there

Television flickers

On channel One

And static cracks the air

Yesterday was yesterday

A nightmare of my past

Sipping on another cocktail

From the same glass

Come sunshine

Come next time

Come… Oh!

Come along with me!

I will show you life

I will give you my eyes

I will give you security

Blood of Mary fills my glass

Spins crimson in the gloom

Sipping on another cocktail

Waking up in another room

Gaze out on the river

Of the gleaming city sky

Sipping on another cocktail

Watching the world go by

Come sunshine

Come next time

Come… Oh!

Come along with me!

I will show you life

I will give you my eyes

I will give you security

Surge of twilight

Blazing shadows

Seeing things not there

Television flickers

On channel One

And static cracks the air

Yesterday was yesterday

A nightmare of my past

Sipping on another cocktail

From the same glass

Everyday was yesterday

A nightmare of my past

Sipping on another cocktail

From the same glass
