Nico, John Cale, Lou Reed - Empty Bottles lyrics

Empty, empty bottles lying side by side
Used-up empty bottles
Remembering long lost wine

Keep our empty bottles making empty wine
Marking our intentions sadly out of time

And the summer make you lazy a day at a time
And good company evades you passing you by

But I do love you against all odds
Though you don't know what I want
We're much poorer than that bottle
More foolish than that wine

Maybe we can make it though we failed before
You keep getting closer
Closer to me once more

And I'll try to entertain you
A day at a time
Try to make myself much clearer
From your wine

But I do love you against all odds
Though you don't know what I want
Seeing you and seeing me
We're much poorer than that bottle
More foolish than that wine
