No Milk Today

No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn
A symbol of the dark
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by
Don’t know the reason why
But how could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes
The end of all my dreams
How could they know what palace might have been
Behind the door
Where my love reigns as Queen
No milk today, it wasn’t always so
The company was gay
We turned night into day
After we played and came up from the dance
Well that was were we sowed
The seeds of old romance
Well how could we know just what this message means
The end of our hopes
The end of all our dreams
Then how could I know what palace might have been
Behind the door
Where my love reigns as Queen
And all that’s left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in the main-street back of town
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only
Just to help you down
But how could you know just what this message means
The end of our hopes
The end of all our dreams
And how could I know what palace might have been
Behind the door
Where my love reigns as Queen
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by
Don’t know the reason why
No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn
A symbol of the dark
No milk today (today)
No milk today (no milk today)
