One Glass to Forget
Reggae-pop song with a steady, mellow skank at 89 BPM: organ, warm horns, a skanking guitar and bass, with a soft male tenor and a short toasting deejay break. Mellow and melancholy, sung in English, about trying to forget a heartbreak with a glass of wine.
Lyrics
The kitchen light is way too bright.I’m sitting in the dark alone.I haven't slept a wink tonight.I’m staring at my silent phone.A little more red.A little less blue.I’m drinking to forget.The way I wanted you.A little more red.A little less blue.I’m drinking to forget.The way I wanted you.I watch the liquid swirl around.It paints a circle on the wood.I try to tune out every sound.I’d stop this aching if I could.A little more red.A little less blue.I’m drinking to forget.The way I wanted you.A little more red.A little less blue.I’m drinking to forget.The way I wanted you.The bottle’s getting lighter now.But my heart feels like lead.I’ll make it through the night somehow.With these thoughts inside my head.A little more red.A little less blue.I’m drinking to forget.The way I wanted you.A little more red.A little less blue.I’m drinking to forget.The way I wanted you.
