Cherry Wine (Live)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Her eyes and words are so icy Oh, but she burns like rum on a fire Hot and fast and angry as she can be I walk my days on a wire [Pre-Chorus] It looks ugly, but it's clean Oh mama, don't fuss over me [Chorus] The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine Open hand or closed fist, oh, would be fine The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine [Verse 2] Calls of guilty thrown at me, all while she stains The sheets of some other Thrown at me so powerfully, just like she throws With the arm of her brother [Pre-Chorus] But I want it, it's a crime That she's not around most of the time [Chorus] The way she shows me I'm hers and she is mine Open hand or closed fist, oh, would be fine The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Her fight and fury's fiery Oh, but she loves like sleep to the freezing Sweet and right and merciful, I'm all but washed In the tide of her breathing [Pre-Chorus] And it's worth it, it's divine I have this some of the time [Chorus] The way she shows me I'm hers and she is mine Open hand or closed fist, oh, would be fine The blood is rare and as sweet as cherry wine
