Her hands are burned From the torch that she carries Her closets are full of old dreams She can't wear I sit beside her But it's you on her mind It's a party you're giving But I buy the wine She'll dance with me But it's you that she's holdin' And she does her best To hide it from me But I've always known She can leave me behind
She brings the memories And I buy the wine I buy the wine That makes her unwind Makes her forget About you Then in the darkness With our bodies entwined She cries out a name But Lord it's not mine I buy the wine That makes her unwind Makes her forget About you Then in the darkness With our bodies entwined
