Dalton Domino – Cheap Spanish Wine lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lowdown and lonesome
Scared I'm forgotten
Fearless is yesterday's tune
That cold rain on a Sunday
Means it's all closed 'til Monday
So I'll take what I can get to get through

Sad Songs and Waltzes
Replace the rainbows
And the pictures that hung in the hall
While the hard times and the distance
Finally outweighed what we thought
Came natural from the start

But does that heavy sense of freedom
Lay gentle on your mind like it does mine?

[Chorus]
To say I didn't love you would take all that I have
I forgot at the time what was to lose
Now it's three warm bottles of cheap Spanish wine
To get through my first midnight without you

[Verse 2]
I guess it took us too long
To both figure out
Love shouldn't hurt like it did
Was that pain at the end
So self-defeating
That it caused us to go through this

And those pieces we broke
They're still things we hold against
New lovers and ourselves in the dark
But every now and again
There's that sigh of relief
That reminds us why we are where we are

[Chorus]
To say I didn't love you would take all that I have
I forgot at the time what was to lose
Now it's three warm bottles of cheap Spanish wine
To get through my first midnight without you
Now it's three warm bottles of cheap Spanish wine
To get through my first midnight without you
