Success for me lay just around the corner

I thought my social friends would help me make the turn.

But now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
6

And now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
15
A victim of the drunken life I chose

Now all my social friend look down their noses
17
For I kept the wine and threw away the rose.
