Sweet On The Vine

Boo Hewerdine


It would be good to see you again
Go back to the places we both knew then
Each of us are prisoners of time
The memory stays sweet on the vine
Once in a while I hear word of you
Where you are now, things you might do
I'm never sure if the years can be kind
The memory stays sweet on the vine 

Sweet on the vine
Sweet on the vine
Let the memory stay 
Sweet on the vine
Sweet on the vine
Let the memory stay 
Sweet on the vine 

What's in our nature that makes us want more?
Long for the taste that we knew before
I couldn't say, but sometimes you find
The sweeter the fruit, the sourer the wine 

Sweet on the vine
Sweet on the vine
Let the memory stay 
Sweet on the vine
Sweet on the vine
Let the memory stay 
Sweet on the vine 

It would be good to see you again
Go back to the places we both knew then
There can be love in leaving behind
Where the memory stays 
Sweet on the vine
