Bottle of Bad Wine
Chasing Dreams Amidst Life's Turmoil
Lyrics
I got a bottle of bad wine you know the drill
I have a bottle of low-quality wine, and you're familiar with the routine.
There's a billion stories I don't know yet how to tell
There are countless untold stories that I haven't figured out how to articulate yet.
I want a night that feels like a dream
I desire a night that is reminiscent of a dream.
I want it right slipping in and out of reality
I want it to be just right, shifting between reality and dreamlike states.
Some nights you need to forget but you know how that goes
Some nights require forgetting, but the outcome is predictable.
Some nights you need to regret but thank God for those
Some nights involve regrets, and gratitude is expressed for those experiences.
La la la la la la
Repetition of "La la la la la la."
What good is a beautiful night without someone to spend it with
Questioning the value of a beautiful night without someone to share it with.
What good are the stars in the sky without someone to make sure their there
Questioning the purpose of stars without someone to appreciate them.
What good would be you and be I without something to give us a lift
Reflecting on the importance of mutual contribution in a relationship.
The way you feel might be normal tonight but in time you will find that it's rare
Emphasizing the rarity of current feelings and the evolving nature of emotions.
So take it in now
An encouragement to savor the moment.
Cause dreams don't last forever
Noting the impermanence of dreams.
You could wake up in some sunny day
A warning that one might wake up to a different reality.
Wondering what happened to all the love you threw away
Reflecting on the consequences of discarding love.
Dance and love and learn to laugh
Encouragement to dance, love, and find joy despite challenging days.
Though most days are nothing but bad
Acknowledging that most days are tough.
The worse it gets the more you need someone worth fighting for yeah
Stressing the importance of having someone worth fighting for during difficult times.
La la la la la la la
Repetition of "La la la la la la."
When's the last time you said yes and
Prompting reflection on the last affirmative decision made.
Jump on the couch you hear the music just give me your hand
Invitation to spontaneity and connection through music.
I can read your mind you know I can
Claiming the ability to understand someone's thoughts.
You're just scared that I might actually understand you
Noting someone's fear of being understood.
So take it in now
Encouragement to seize the moment.
Cause dreams don't last forever
Reiteration of the temporary nature of dreams.
You could wake up in some sunny day
Reiteration of the possibility of waking up to a changed reality.
Wondering what happened to all the love you threw away
Reiteration of contemplating lost love.
Dance and love and learn to laugh
Encouragement to dance, love, and find joy despite challenging weeks.
Though most weeks are nothing but bad
Acknowledging that most weeks are challenging.
The worse it gets the more you need someone worth fighting for yeah
Stressing the importance of having someone worth fighting for during difficult times.
Sometimes you shut someone out and you know how that goes
Recognizing the tendency to shut people out, despite knowing the consequences.
But you gotta let someone in and thank God for those
Highlighting the necessity of letting someone in and expressing gratitude for those moments.
la la la la la la la
Repetition of "La la la la la la."
So take it now
Encouragement to seize the moment.
Cause dreams don't last forever
Reiteration of the temporary nature of dreams.
You could wake up in some sunny day
Reiteration of the possibility of waking up to a changed reality.
Wondering what happened to all the love you threw away
Reiteration of contemplating lost love.
Dance cause you know I make you laugh
Encouragement to dance and laugh, emphasizing the positive impact on relationships.
Though most years are nothing but bad
Acknowledging that most years are challenging.
The worse it gets the more you need someone worth fighting for
Stressing the importance of having someone worth fighting for during difficult times.
I got a bottle of bad wine you know the drill
Repetition of the initial statement about having a bottle of bad wine.
