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 all my hopes, the end of all my dreams

How could they know the 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

No milk today, it wasn't always so

The company was gay, we'd turn 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 shrine when I think of you only

Just two up two down
