She unscrews the top from her new whiskey bottle
Shuffles about in her candle lit hovel Like some kind of witch with blue fingers and mittens She smells like a cat and the neighbors she sickens Black and white TV has long seen a picture The cross on the wall is a permanent fixture The postman delivers the final reminders She sells off her silver and poodles and in china Drinks to remember I made it myself the chimes of the clock and the dust from the shelf Home is a love that I miss very much So the past has been bottled and labeled with love During the wartime and American pilot Made every air-raid a time of excitement She moved to his prairie and married a Texan She looked from a distance our love was a lesson He became drinker and she became mother She knew that one day she'd be one or the other He ate himself older drunk himself dizzy Proud of her features she kept herself pretty Drinks to remember I made it myself the chimes of the clock and the dust from the shelf Home is a love that I miss very much So the past has been bottled and labeled with love He like a cowboy died drunk in a slumber Out on the porch in the middle of summer She crossed the ocean back home to her family But they had retired to roads that were sandy She moved home alone without friends or relations Lived in a world full of age reservations A moth eaten object she'd say that she'd sod all her friends Who had left her to drink from her bottle Drinks to remember I made it myself the chimes of the clock and the dust from the shelf Home is a love that I miss very much So the past has been bottled and labeled with love Drinks to remember I made it myself the chimes of the clock and the dust from the shelf Home is a love that I miss very much So the past has been bottled and labeled with love The past has been bottled and labeled with love The past has been bottled and labeled with love Songwriters: Christopher Difford / Glenn Tilbrook |

Wonderful song and a great band, live they absolutely rock.
Tempted is my favourite song by them. |

By:
Squeeze are fantastic live.
A Glenn Tilbrook solo gig is also a great night out. Just him and his guitar in a small venue. Lots of interaction with the audience and will have a chat before and after he plays. |

I've seen them live a few times nick and they always delivered a top show, I've not seen them for about 15 years now or so but they are still doing the rounds and would go and see them again even now.

"Tempted" I will never ever tire of listening to this superlative song.

Yes, they're still touring and selling lots of tickets.
In recent years they used to play in various pubs in Greenwich. Not sure if they still do. (Pelton Arms and Anchor and Hope.) Did you see my comment about Letitia Dean on the Bodyguard thread? |
