Bitter Wine lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Bitter Wine lyrics We met some time ago, when we were almost young It never crossed my mind to ask, where did you come from? I didn t have much money, so I stole you a rose You were dressed like an orphan, in Salvation Army clothes Once you were my inspiration, but, that river s run dry What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine I know I wasn t funny, but you laughed at all my jokes When I was chaking on the words to say You shoved your finger down my throat The first night I said I loved you, you told me to go to hell You were giving he head, on that creeky Old bed at the Ol Duvol Motel Once you were my inspiration, but, that river s run dry What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine Once you were my inspiration, but, that river s run dry What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine I would drink of your river, it would always get me high What was once my salvation, now tastes like bitter wine I never thought I d love ya, no - I d rather go blind I thought I saw the future, but the fortune teller lied I guess she lied Just like everything, even good love has to die Ain t no sympathy when it waves goodbye, no one even cried We were one of a kind I would drink of your river, it would always get me high What was once my salvation, now tastes like bitter wine I never thought I d love ya, no - I d rather go blind I thought I saw the future, but the fortune teller lied I guess she lied song lyrics
