英文乡村歌曲：No milk today

    No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by, don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door, where my love reigned¹ as queen

No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we turned night into day

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine², when I think of you
Only just two up two down

No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we turned night into day
As music played the faster did we dance
We felt it both at once, the start of our romance.

How could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door, where my love reigned as queen

No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine, when I think of you
Only just two up two down

No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by, don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door, where my love reigned as queen

No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we turned night into day

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
