Bon Jovi - Bitter Wine lyrics

We met some time ago, when we were almost young

It never crossed my mind to ask, where did you come from?

I didn`t have much money, so I stole you a rose

You were dressed like an orphan, in Salvation Army clothes

Once you were my inspiration, but, that river`s run dry

What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine

I know I wasn`t funny, but you laughed at all my jokes

When I was chaking on the words to say

You shoved your finger down my throat

The first night I said I loved you, you told me to go to hell

You were giving he head, on that creeky

Old bed at the Ol`Duvol Motel

Once you were my inspiration, but, that river`s run dry

What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine

Once you were my inspiration, but, that river`s run dry

What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine

I would drink of your river, it would always get me high

What was once my salvation, now tastes like bitter wine

I never thought I`d love ya, no - I`d rather go blind

I thought I saw the future, but the fortune teller lied

I guess she lied

Just like everything, even good love has to die

Ain`t no sympathy when it waves goodbye, no one even cried

We were one of a kind

I would drink of your river, it would always get me high

What was once my salvation, now tastes like bitter wine

I never thought I`d love ya, no - I`d rather go blind

I thought I saw the future, but the fortune teller lied

I guess she lied
