Romantic memory revisited.

lyrics

Cabernet and Candlelight

Those were the nights of cabernet and candlelight
Dancing on the patio, Van Morrison on the radio
Bucheron lingers in the air and just a trace
of lipstick on my pillowcase
That was then and this is now
I’m getting through the day without you anyhow

Though you’re gone, you’re not hard to find
I close my eyes and there you are
with style, that elusive smile
at the edge of my mind

Sunlight peeking through the window shade
falling on the satin sheets where you lay
So perfect in almost every way
Even your flaws are beautiful
An angel with feet made of clay
That was then and this is now
And I’m getting through the day without you anyhow

Though you’re gone, you’re not hard to find
I close my eyes and there you are
Your skin against mine, joy of your laughter
crazy in love, the morning after,

That Summer dress, your nakedness,
Just you & me, lips close as they can be
lips as close as they can be
Those were the nights of cabernet and candlelight
Dancing on the patio, Van Morrison on the radio
Bucheron lingers in the air and just a trace
of lipstick on my pillowcase
Longing for something that I’ll never find

and still you’re there at the edge of my mind
The edge of my mind, the edge of my
