The days of wine and roses
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The days of wine and roses
Laugh and run away, like a child at play
Through a meadow land toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before
The lone...ly night discloses
Just a passing breeze, filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduce me to
The days of wine and roses and you.
