SPARKLING WINE
(Tommy Hill / Red Sovine)


Red Sovine - 1967


Give me a big glass, I said a big glass, let it sparkle with wine
Love didn't last, now the past I must leave behind
Caught you deceivin', now that's the reason I must try to forget
Give me a big glass, I said a big glass, take it there from the shelf

Fill it up, it might even take more
On the past I must close the door
It's not an old love, but a cold love that's twisted my mind
Give me a big glass, I said a big glass of sparklin' wine

Give me a big glass, I said a big glass, dreams didn't come true
There was no part of my heart that didn't love you
Numb the feelin' that I'm feelin', let me live through the night
Give me a big glass, I said a big glass of sparklin' wine

Fill it up, it might even take more
On the past I must close the door
It's not an old love, but a cold love that's twisted my mind
Give me a big glass, I said a big glass of sparklin' wine
