Songtexte Red wine - Second Horizon

Thought about writing this on the ukulele
To brighten up the feel
Like garnishing a failed attempt with a bay leaf
And serving up the meal
Considered shifting focus
Overwrite this
Locate a way to seal
Instead of kicking back reminiscing
Rewind, rewatch the reel

Take a rain check
Oh just dwell
Leave the band-aid on
And let it swell

The grey rememberer is standing tall
Trumpeting out of its trunk
Matched only by a chihuahua
Barking at the top of its lungs

It seems like clear skies
But dark storm clouds loom
When even mice can't scare
This elephant out of the room

Cursing profoundly at the lawn
Cupping your coffee in a yawn
The worn out seat when you are gone
A constant reminder of
A life that's lived well
Underneath the same old story
And your buck teeth
I'll drag your chair under the chestnut tree
And pour myself a glass of red wine

Cheers
