Blueberry Wine
Well it feels like a hundred years or more
The hands of time sure have been movin’ slow
We may have met in the sun or the April rain
But there’s one thing I know for sure
There was blueberry wine that summer
And blueberry wine that spring
I know I loved you then
But I can’t remember anything
Now it might have been some way that you looked at me
A sound you’d make or something you would say
The hazy nights make all things seem a little sweeter
I’ve always been a little foolish that way
Now I wish I could sing ‘her eyes are blue’
Or spin some words to illustrate you
But the bottle ran dry and the leaves fell to the ground
And I hope you’re out there doin’ good
I’m just rollin’ on like some driftwood
‘Till the river runs dry I’ll remain onward bound
Now I couldn’t say when you wrote this letter I’ve been savin’
It’s just signed ‘always, your blueberry girl’
And I don’t even know where you’re livin’
But I guess I wouldn’t fit now in your world
