No Milk Today

[Verse 1]
No milk today
My love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn
A symbol of the dawn

[Verse 2]
No milk today
It seems a common sight
But people passing by
Don't know the reason why

[Chorus]
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?

[Verse 3]
No milk today
It wasn't always so
The company was gay
We turned night into day

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
No milk today
It wasn't always so
The company was gay
We turned night into day

[Verse 4]
As music played
The faster did we dance
We felt it both at once
The start of our romance

[Chorus]
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?

[Verse 1]
No milk today
My love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn
A symbol of the dawn

[Bridge]
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
Just two up, two down
