~~ Strawberries Tickled with Wine ~~

i don't want to hurt anymore

i got to walk out that door

there's just but one i adore

and i

don't want to

hurt

anymore

 

strawberries tickled with wine

you stick right here on my mind

there's only one so fine

as strawberries,

yeah,

tickled with wine

 

oh and it's two in the morning and the phone rings out

there ain't a god-damn-thing i feel like talking about

but it's been too long

her voice like an old song

sang

'meet me tonight

and don't

bring

her

along'

 

yeah, you woke up and asked me who just called

i told you

'no one baby don't you worry at all'

you know i lied

still you never tried

to stop me

from

straying

as i left

that

night

 

she sits so close i can't stand

she takes the ring from my hand

the devil breaks any man

when she sits

so close

i can't stand

 

the wicked ways of love

turn black the wings of a dove

what's wrong

can't be sent from above

those wicked

woeful

ways

of our love

 

yeah, it's too late now

as she's laying me down

i smell strawberries

but there're none around

i know i can't stay

so i get up to say

as the stars

in the east

start to fade

in

to

day.

 

I don't want to hurt anymore

i got to walk out that door

there's just but one i adore
