Cass McCombs - The Wine of Lebanon lyrics
[Cass McCombs - The Wine of Lebanon lyrics]
Returns a thief? Providence is too brief
What's left to grieve?
Currency, the bitter end
After the flood, what remains?
The wine of Lebanon the wine of Lebanon
What's left when harvest tugs upon her yoke?
Cruel garters around her, choke
What's left to hope?
Strap me down into your chair
Whip me 'til I beg for air
The wine of Lebanon the wine of Lebanon
What's left of decadence after a year?
Pulling them from ear to ear
What holds a man? A lottery of emptiness
What is left? What is right?
The wine of Lebanon you offered me
The wine of Lebanon flowing free
The wine of Lebanon so red and true
The wine of Lebanon what can I offer you?
What can I offer you?
