Oh red, red wine
Bring to me my peace of mind
When I breathe in your bouquet
It eases the burdens of the day
When I see your red glow in the dim light
I praise the newness of the night
As I pour your flavors into the glass
I know the night begins, alas
I sit, I breathe, I sip, I sigh,
I love your taste, ripe, rich and dry
Tonight a Cabernet, tomorrow a blend
I wish the rich warmth would have no end.
Oh the strength you give me to go on
To sleep at night, to face the dawn
The friends that come around to share
Your divineness, no other nectar compares
The day is forgotten, the night complete
I’m feeling so fine, until tomorrow, my sweet
