Strawberry Wine

Intro: Last night the street collapsed on itself In fact it broke right in two And I fell in strawberry vines Into a pool of strawberry wine Strawberry wine inclines Burning in the desert surrounded by fires but the stems break beyond more than the morning calls Till its all just the same thing again oh god ) Dont spend too much time on the other side Let the daylight in Before you give up and you cant break out of it my old friend Cause its getting worse if you want any flowers You better get your seeds into the ground And I worry about you Why? Because you want me to Can you still have any famous last words If youre somebody nobody knows I don't know Somebody go and ask Claire, she's been dead 20 years just look at her hair Strawberry blonde with curls She gets her hair done then she gossips with the younger waitress girls at the bar The old irish rose drinking strawberry wine till it comes out her nose Dont spend too much time on the other side Let the daylight in Before you give up and you cant break out of it my old friend Cause its getting worse if you want any flowers You better get your seeds into the ground And I worry about you Why? Because you want me to Marty was a kid when he learned to sail boats His dad was a DJ on the radio He fell into a life of river boating crime Now he's the man you see in prison if you want strawberry wine Strawberry wine or smokes He sent a letter to his friend explaining one night on coke He and Claire jumped right into them strawberry vines Lord knows you get lost on that strawberry wine Dont spend too much time on the other side Let the daylight in This fellow downtown he jumped off a bridge He was angry about a letter he received from his friend He jumped into the banks of San Francisco Bay Picking strawberries in the clouds all day Cause with nothing left to lose you get screwed You sell your apartment before they make you move Then you jump straight into the arms of the most beautiful girl Who had never ever lived in the history of the world And with nothing left to prove you get screwed And sell your apartment before they make you move Gonna jump straight into the darkened bay Picking strawberries with strawberry wine all day So don't spend too much time on the other side Dont forget to let the daylight in Cause before you get old you better break out of it my old friend Cause its getting better and if you want any flowers You better get your seeds into the ground Cause I worry about you Why? Dont bother to ask me why I'll be fine just sitting here laughing Little old me and my strawberry wine Strawberry wine Strawberry wine
