Generate meaning
1
Once I lived a life of wine and roses
2
I drank a lot back then for one concern
3
Success for me lay just around the corner
4
I thought my social friend would help me make the turn
5
But now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
6
A victim of the drunken life I chose
7
Now all my social friends look down their noses
8
For I kept the wine and threw away the rose
9
I stood by and watched the bottle take control of me
10
The turn I made was not the one I planned
11
And I watched my social standings slip away from me
12
As I slowly watched the bottle take command
13
And now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
14
A victim of the drunken life I chose
15
Now all my social friends look down their noses
16
For I kept the wine and through away the rose
