Mine eyes are a glass half-empty,
They're parched for a sight of you;
Mine eyes are a glass half-full, for they've been
Crying all night for you.
My thirst doesn't dry my tears, and
My tears don't quench my thirst-
Since you left my sight, my dear,
Mine eyes have been accursed.

a PESSIMIST sees the glass of water half-empty,
an OPTIMIST sees it half-full;
a REALIST adds 60 ml whiskey to it, and says CHEERS !
