BON JOVI - Bitter Wine lyrics

rate me

We met some time ago, when we were almost young<br>It never crossed my mind to ask, where did you come from? <br>I didn't have much money, so I stole you a rose<br>You were dressed like an orphan, in salvation army clothes<br><br>Once you were my inspiration, but, that river's run dry<br>What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine<br><br>I know I wasn't funny, but you laughed at all my jokes<br>When I was chaking on the words to say<br>You shoved your finger down my throat<br>The first night I said I loved you, you told me to go to hell<br>You were giving he head, on that creeky<br>Old bed at the ol'duvol motel<br><br>Once you were my inspiration, but, that river's run dry<br>What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine<br><br>Once you were my inspiration, but, that river's run dry<br>What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine<br><br>I would drink of your river, it would always get me high<br>What was once my salvation, now tastes like bitter wine<br><br>I never thought I'd love ya, no - I'd rather go blind<br>I thought I saw the future, but the fortune teller lied<br>I guess she lied<br><br>Just like everything, even good love has to die<br>Ain't no sympathy when it waves goodbye, no one even cried<br>We were one of a kind<br><br>I would drink of your river, it would always get me high<br>What was once my salvation, now tastes like bitter wine<br><br>I never thought I'd love ya, no - I'd rather go blind<br>I thought I saw the future, but the fortune teller lied<br>I guess she lied
