this alcohol ..

off the lyrics of Pankaj Udhas, famous Indian classical vocalist and poet.. thinking about you Dad, and all those pegs of Johhny Walker Red Label, and Tusker on sunday afternoons.. take care and see you soon

this alcohol is such a thing,
that it can't be quit
my friend, that is what it's like,
that is what it's like..

i've seen every step changing in itself
but the alcohol stays the way it is,
this alcohol is such a thing..

it might soften with someone's breath
and the weight lightens marginally,
but this water is such, that it can't be quit..

this is the cure for broken hearts,
how else can i tell you, how it is,
this is like my friend is, that's how it is..

this alcohol is such a thing,
that it can't be quit
my friend, that is what it's like,
that is what it's like..

i've seen every city change over time,
but it all stays the same,
cannot be left as it was..

it melts with someone's breath,
and it lightens with someone's burden of love,
but it's like water it can't be left..

this is the cure for broken hearts,
how do i tell you what it's like,
that it just cannot be quit..
