Lyrics


Chablis & Tears Les Holmes
There's a light down the hallway, that shows me where to go
`n I know when I get there, it's cold as the driven snow
Two bodies lie together, that once held fire in side
But it's the embers in the fireplace now, that keep us warm at night
And while the light on the porch brings me home each day
It's getting damn hard to keep finding the way
To a house full of lights that shine
When I know there's more warmth in this bottle of wine
verse 2
There's a light by the kitchen and coffee any time
I see by the dirty table, the kids still pay you no mind
And the note you left on the counter, says you felt a little tired
If I don't mind would I clean up the range, and put the trash just outside
It's just another day gone by, that I feel like I'm living a lie
So damn tired of working so damned hard,
And only getting something back
When I take another bottle of wine off the rack
Chorus
Crying in my glass,
`bout our love that didn't last
Sippin' at a drink of wine, that gets better with time
You say you love me but we both know you're lyin'
So I'll stick to this bottle of wine.
verse 3
I've got friends, like Mogen David, Dom Perrier's my buddy too
You can tell when I'm down, the Gallo Brothers know just what to do
Hold my head in their vines, It's either that or me crying all the time
And still coming home, all alone
To a love that wears a label with pride
When I'd much rather hold you by my side
Chorus
Crying in my glass
Wishing I was in the past
When the light in your eyes by the light of the stars
Held more feeling that the light from this bar
When our dreams alone made us glow
And I didn't need the liquor to know
You were warmer than a bottle of wine

No.... I didn't need the liquor to know
You were warmer......... than a bottle of wine


M, m, m, ....any old bottle of wine.
