Strawberry Wine

[Verse 1]

He was working through college

On my grandpa's farm

I was thirsting for knowledge

And he had a car

Yeah, I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child

One restless summer we found love growing wild

On the banks of the river on a well-beaten path

It's funny how those memories they last

[Chorus]

Like strawberry wine and seventeen

The hot July moon saw everything

My first taste of love, oh bittersweet

The green on the vine like strawbеrry wine

[Verse 2]

I still remembеr

When thirty was old

My biggest fear was September

When he had to go

A few cards and letters and one long-distance call

We drifted away like the leaves in the fall

But year after year I come back to this place

Just to remember the taste

[Chorus]

Of strawberry wine and seventeen

The hot July moon saw everything

My first taste of love, oh bittersweet

The green on the vine like strawberry wine

[Bridge]

The fields have grown over now, years since they've seen a plow

There's nothing time hasn't touched

Is it really him or the loss of my innocence

I've been missing so much?

Yeah

[Chorus]

Strawberry wine and seventeen

The hot July moon saw everything

My first taste of love, oh bittersweet

And green on the vine like strawberry wine

Like strawberry wine
