We met some time ago when we were almost
young It never crossed my mind to ask where
did you come from I didnt have much money so i
stole you a rose You were dressed like an
orphan in salvation army clothes
I never
thought i'd lose you,nor i'd rather go blind I
thought i saw a future but the fortune teller
lied
Your love was my salvation it could
always get me high What was once holy water
tastes like bitter wine
I know I wasnt
funny but you laughed at all my jokes When i
was choking on the words to say you your fingers
down my throat The first night i said i love
you you told me to go to hell You were giving
me head on that creaky bed at the old duval
motel
Just like everything good love has
to die Ain't no sympathy when it says
goodbye
Your love was my salvation it
could always get me high What was once holy
water tastes like bitter wine
Just like
everything good love has to die No one even
cried we were one of a kind
Love left me
stranded at the station and the last train's gone
by What was once holy water tastes like bitter
wine
Your love was my salvation it could
always get me high You take back the holy
water now all that's left is bitter wine
