The Wine of Lebanon

What's left when fortune fair returns a thief? Providence is too brief What's left to grieve? Currency, the bitter end After the flood, what remains? The wine of Lebanon The wine of Lebanon What's left when harvest tugs upon her yoke? Cruel garters around her, choke What's left to hope? Strap me down into your chair Whip me till I beg for air The wine of Lebanon The wine of Lebanon What's left of decadence after a year? Pulling them from ear to ear What holds a man? A lottery of emptiness What is left? What is right? The wine of Lebanon You offered me The wine of Lebanon Flowing free The wine of Lebanon So red and true The wine of Lebanon What can I offer you? What can I offer you?
