Cherry Wine
Intoxicating Desires: Unveiling the Soulful Tale of Cherry Wine
Lyrics
I saw your face in a dream last night
I had a dream where I saw your face last night
And you said words that would change my life
You spoke words that had a profound impact on my life
You said it's gonna be alright
You assured me that everything will be okay
I want you back, won't you come home with me tonight
I desire your return; please come home with me tonight
Where I know nobody can do you any harm
A place where no one can cause you harm
When you're lying so sweetly completely in my arms
Being in my arms, you lie peacefully and sweetly
She says she loves me oh cherry wine
You express love, symbolized by "cherry wine"
Now I, I can't stop drinkin', I drink all the time
I'm unable to stop drinking; it has become a constant habit
I've wanted too much and her well's gone dry
I've desired too much, and her emotional well-being is depleted
I've worn out her stores, no more cherry wine
I've exhausted her reserves, and there's no more emotional solace
So she takes me by the hand
She leads me to a place where we can revive our love
We find a place where we can make this love again
We attempt to reconnect romantically
And she gets so close, so close that her skin is
Intimacy grows, and her skin touches mine closely
It's all it's up against mine it feels so right its a hopeless plight
It feels right, but it's a situation with no hopeful resolution
We won't work tonight
Despite our efforts, it won't work tonight
No no matter how hard we try
Regardless of our sincere attempts
It's such a shame and I'm to blame
It's regrettable, and I acknowledge my responsibility
There's no more cherry wine
There's no more emotional comfort or solace like "cherry wine"
She says she loves me cherry wine
She affirms love with the metaphor of "cherry wine"
I can't stop drinkin' I drink all the time
I'm still unable to break free from the habit of drinking
I've wanted too much and her well's gone dry
I've desired excessively, and her emotional well is empty
I've worn out her stores no more cherry wine
I've depleted her emotional resources, and there's no more comfort
Here I am a tattered kind of man still fighting
I find myself in a worn-out state, still fighting
So I gain the upper hand if I can
I strive to gain control, to have an advantage if possible
I'm kind and I'm smart
Despite being kind and smart, I feel lonely in my heart
Why am I so alone in my heart
Unexplained reasons leave me feeling alone
For reasons unexplained it's got to be going bad oh yeah
Things are deteriorating without clear reasons
She says she loves me oh, cherry wine no I
She reiterates love with the metaphor of "cherry wine," but...
I can't stop drinkin' I drink all the time
...I still struggle with drinking, making it a constant habit
I've wanted too much and her well's gone dry
I've desired excessively, and her emotional well is dry
I've worn out her stores no more cherry wine
I've depleted her emotional resources, and there's no more comfort
