Drinking Wine Alone — текст песни (Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show)

(Joel Jaffe)

I`m laying by the river, on a sunny afternoon
The glass of wine beside me, is the colour of the sun
Then the river moves inside me, and it all comes rushing back
There`s something about drinking wine alone

I`m sitting at the table, staring at my plate
The meal I fixed so carefully, is wasted I can`t eat
The first taste touched a place in me, I`m still afraid to find
There`s something about drinking wine alone

There are traces of her waiting, in the place I least expect
A laugh, a sudden movement, a lighted cigarette
Am I hiding from the very thing, I tried so hard to find
There`s something about drinking wine alone

I have wasted something precious, and it quickly slipped away
Like moonbeams through my fingers, as I turned the other way
Am I waiting for a miracle, or have I just been blind
There`s something about drinking wine alone
