Red Wine and Blue Memories
Sipping Red Wine, Chasing Blue Memories: A Melodic Journey Through Heartache
Lyrics
When I looked at her, she was standing there
Observation of a woman standing there.
Pretty long, black, shinny hair
Description of the woman's long, black, shiny hair.
And I heard her say
Expression of something she said.
Do you need a little company
Invitation for companionship.
But in that old bar, the lights were dim
Setting the scene in an old bar with dim lights.
And I'll bet she didn't notice them
Speculation that she might not have noticed the surroundings.
Two old faithful friends
Reference to two old faithful friends present.
Right here with me
Confirmation of the speaker's current company.
I've got red wine, blue memories
Introduction of the speaker's emotional state with red wine and blue memories.
And a heartache that won't set me free
Expression of a lingering heartache.
I've got lots of time for drinkin', lots more time for thinkin'
Allocation of time for drinking and contemplation.
I've got red wine, blue memories
Reiteration of red wine and blue memories.
Then she turned and walked away
Description of the woman leaving.
Shook her head as if to say
Indication that the speaker missed an opportunity for a good time.
Man you missed a real good time with me
Reflecting on the speaker's choice not to engage with the woman.
Aw but I just poured another glass
Decision to pour another glass despite the missed opportunity.
Toasted someone from the past
Toasting to someone from the past.
Some old but not forgotten memory
Connection to an old but not forgotten memory.
I've got red wine, blue memories
Reiteration of red wine and blue memories.
And a heartache that won't set me free
Confirmation of the enduring heartache.
I've got lots of time for drinkin', lots more time for thinkin'
Continued allocation of time for drinking and thinking.
I've got red wine, blue memories
Reiteration of red wine and blue memories.
Red wine, blue memories
Final repetition of red wine and blue memories.
