Текст Ryan Adams — Strawberry Wine

Last night the street collapsed on itself
In fact, it broke right in two
And I fell in
The strawberry vines
Into a pool of strawberry wine

Strawberry wine and clouds
Burning in the desert, surrounded in flowers
But the stems broke the armor
And the morning comes
‘Til it’s all just the same things again, oh God
Don’t spend too much time on the other side
Let the daylight in

Before you get old and you can’t break out of it
My old friend
‘Cause its getting winter, and if you want any flowers
You gotta get your seeds in, to the ground
And I worry about you
Why, because you want me to

Can you still have any famous last words
If you’re somebody nobody knows
I don’t know
Somebody go and ask Clair
She’s been dead twenty years, just look at her hair

Strawberry blonde with curls
She gets her hair done, then she gossips
With the younger waitress girls at the bar
The old Irish rose
Drinking strawberry wine ’til it comes out her nose
She spent too much time on the other side
She forgot to let the daylight in

So before you get old you’d better break out of it
My old friend
‘Cause its getting winter and if you want any flowers
You better get your seeds in, to the ground
And I worry about you
Why, because you want me too

This fella downtown, he jumped off a bridge
He was angry about a letter he received from his friend
He fell in, to the arms of the most beautiful girl
That have ever, ever lived in the history of the world

And with nothing left to lose he got screwed
He sold his apartment before they made him move
Then he jumped straight in, to the San Francisco bay
Now he lives on Molly’s farm, picking berries all day
Don’t spend too much time on the other side
Let the daylight in

Marty was a kid when he learned steal boats
His dad was a DJ on the radio
He fell into a life of riverboatin’ crime
He’s the man you see in prison if you want strawberry wine

Strawberry wine and smokes
He sent a letter to his friend
Explaining one night on coke
He and Clair jumped right in to them strawberry vines
Lord knows you get lost on that strawberry wine
Don’t spend too much time on the other side
Let the daylight in

Now I’m getting old and I gotta break out of it
My old friend
‘Cause its getting winter and if I want any flowers
I gotta get my seeds in to the ground
And if you worry about me
Don’t bother, why?

I’ll be fine
I’m just sitting here laughing
Little old me
And my strawberry wine
Strawberry wine
