Like a sun that slowly sets As a gla** begins to fill Feelin' old and sad, drinkin' bad Colouring my life All alone, out of love On the phone, out of touch Not a lot to say, I'm leavin' fate To the colour of the wine Of the wine Like a sun an open sea I drown a minor key Like the price of love And the patch on my jeans Buckled tight Took a finger to the gun This is all I had to show Now you're back again I can't complain 'Bout the colour of the wine Of the wine I fought for love Playin' hide an' seek Only losin' sleep I fought for love Right across the street Where the wine is cheap Took a finger to the gun This is all I had to show Now you're back again I can't complain 'Bout the colour of the wine Of the wine Of the wine Of the wine
