Strawberry Wine Song Lyrics by Deana Carter
He was working through collegeOn my grandpa’s farmI was thirsting for knowledgeAnd he had a carYeah, I was caught somewhere between a woman and a childOne restless summer we found love growing wildOn the banks of the river on a well beaten pathIt’s funny how those memories they lastLike strawberry wine and seventeenThe hot July moon saw everythingMy first taste of love, oh bittersweetGreen on the vineLike strawberry wine
I still rememberWhen thirty was oldAnd my biggest fear was Septemberwhen he had to goA few cards and letters and one long distance callWe drifted away like the leaves in the fallBut year after year I come back to this placeJust to remember the tasteOf strawberry wine and seventeenThe hot July moon saw everythingMy first taste of love, whoa-oh, bittersweetGreen on the vineLike strawberry wine
The fields have grown over nowYears since they’ve seen the plowThere’s nothing time hasn’t touchedIs it really him or the loss of my innocence?I’ve been missing so much
Yeah
Strawberry wine and seventeenThe hot July moon saw everythingMy first taste of love, whoa-oh bittersweetAnd green on the vineLike strawberry wine and seventeenThe hot July moon saw everythingMy first taste of love, oh, bittersweetAnd green on the vineLike strawberry wine
Strawberry wineOohStrawberry wine
