Kisses Sweeter Than Wine
Timeless Love: A Journey Through Life's Sweetest Kisses
Lyrics
Well when I was a young man and never been kissed
Reflecting on youth and lack of romantic experience.
I got to thinkin' it over how much I'd missed
Contemplating the missed experiences due to not being kissed.
So I got me a girl and I kissed her and then
Acting on the desire, the speaker finds a girl and kisses her.
And then oh Lordy well I kissed her again
Expressing joy and satisfaction from the first kiss, leading to more.
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
Highlighting the exceptional sweetness of the girl's kisses.
She had uh uh kisses sweeter than wine
Reiterating the extraordinary quality of her kisses.
Well I asked her to marry and be my sweet wife
Asking the girl to marry and envisioning a happy life together.
I told her we'd be so happy for the rest of our life
Expressing the speaker's belief in a joyful and lasting marriage.
I begged her and pleaded like a natural man
Begging and pleading with genuine emotion to win her over.
And then whups oh Lordy well she gave me her hand
Successfully gaining her hand in marriage.
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine...
Repeating the sweetness of her kisses as a recurring theme.
Well we worked very hard both me and my wife
Describing the hard work and collaboration between the couple.
A working hand in hand to have a good life
Working together for a good life with evidence of their labor.
We had corn in the fields and whaet in the bins
Listing the abundance in the fields, indicating prosperity.
And then whups oh Lord I was the father of twins
Unexpectedly becoming a father of twins.
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine...
Reiterating the connection between happiness and her kisses.
Well our children then numbered just about four
Noting the increase in the number of children to four.
And they all had the sweethearts a knockin' at the door
Children experiencing romantic relationships and marriage.
They all got married and they wouldn't hesitate
Emphasizing the willingness of the children to marry.
I was whups oh Lord the grandfather of eight
Becoming a grandfather to eight grandchildren.
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine...
Linking the enduring sweetness of kisses to family growth.
Well now that I'm old and ready to go
Reflecting on old age and reminiscing about the past.
We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
Recalling the events and experiences of the past.
Had a lotta kids a lotta trouble and pain
Acknowledging challenges and difficulties in raising a large family.
But then whups oh Lord we'd do it all again
Expressing a willingness to go through it all again despite hardships.
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine...
Concluding with a reaffirmation of the enduring sweetness of kisses.
