lyrics

I was walking on a cold and lonely evening
And I made it to the house of good cheer
A roomful of friendly faces turned to greet me
And the barman offered me a beer

I said no, thanks, ‘cause…

I’m drunk on the milk of human kindness
I’m high on the perfume of delight
I’m under the influence of the love you give to me
And I don’t plan to sober up tonight

I was wandering on a path through the forest
And I came to the meadow of happy folk
There were hobbit children dancing, and elf-maids singing,
And a kind wizard offered me a toke

I said no, thanks, ‘cause…

I’m drunk on the milk of human kindness
I’m high on the perfume of delight
I’m under the influence of the love you give to me
And I don’t plan to sober up tonight

I went biking down the streets of my hometown
And I came back to our geodesic dome
My ever-loving sweetheart took me in her arms
Asked me how does it feel to be home

I said well, darling…

I’m drunk on the milk of human kindness
I’m high on the perfume of delight
I’m under the influence of the love you give to me
And I don’t plan to sober up tonight
