What I Want This To Accomplish

I love music. I love all kinds of music. I love a good melody and I love good lyrics. Here's the thing. Too often I have noticed people getting lost in the melodic side of a song and never listen to the lyrics, the message that the songwriter is trying to share with the listener. Words mean things and there are a lot of songs out there with great lyrics. Here you will find love and hurt, pain and longing, emotions and intimate thoughts from songwriters over the years. There will be no commentary from me on the lyrics. Just the words. The words for you to read, process and ponder and hopefully come away with a little more meaning to a song than just a lovely melody. A more complete understanding of where the artist is coming from. - Bill Clark

TWO MORE BOTTLES OF WINE

We came out west together with a common desire
The fever we had might have set the west coast on fire
Two months later got trouble in mind
My baby moved out and left me behind
But it's all right 'cause it's midnight
And I got two more bottles of wine

The way he left sure turned my head around
Seemed like overnight she just up and put me down
Ain't gonna let it bother me today
I been working and I'm too tired anyway
But it's all right 'cause it's midnight
And I got two more bottles of wine

I'm sixteen hundred miles from the people I know
Been doing all I can but opportunity sure come slow
Lord I'd be in the sun all day
But I'm sweeping out a warehouse in west L.A.
But it's all right 'cause it's midnight
And I got two more bottles of wine
