FOR THE BOTH OF THEM EVERY DAY AND EVERY NIGHT, BOBBY CRIED TILL THE MORNING LIGHT, EVERY DAY AND EVERY NIGHT JIM WOULD DRINK AND THEY WOULD FIGHT HOW LONG CAN THIS KEEP GOING ON? HOW LONG CAN WE... HOW LONG CAN THIS KEEP GOING ON? HOW LONG CAN WE... AND THIS IS THE STORY OF A LOVE THAT COULDN'T LAST OF A LONG FORGOTTEN PAST, OF YOUTH THAT SLIPPED AWAY, OF A THOUGHT FROM YESTERDAY
