No milk today, my love has gone away

The bottle stands forlorn

A symbol of the dark



No milk today, it seems a common sight

But people passing by

Don't know the reason why



But how could they know just what this message means

The end of my hopes

The end of all my dreams



How could they know what palace might have been

Behind the door

Where my love reigns as Queen



No milk today, it wasn't always so

The company was gay

We turned night into day



After we played and came up from the dance

Well that was were we sowed

The seeds of old romance



Well how could we know just what this message means

The end of our hopes

The end of all our dreams



Then how could I know what palace might have been

Behind the door

Where my love reigns as Queen



And all that's left is a place dark and lonely

A terraced house in the main-street back of town

Becomes a shrine when I think of you only

Just to help you down



But how could you know just what this message means

The end of our hopes

The end of all our dreams



And how could I know what palace might have been

Behind the door

Where my love reigns as Queen



No milk today, it seems a common sight

But people passing by

Don't know the reason why



No milk today, my love has gone away

The bottle stands forlorn

A symbol of the dark



No milk today (today) (3x)

No milk today (no milk today)
