Lyric

I wore the dusk like silk

On the edge of my chair

Your name sat red in the air

Like a stain I could share

The room had that old slow tilt

Champagne in a chipped white cup

You leaned in with that crooked smile

And the whole night lit right up

Then the band turned mean

Just enough to tease

My heel found the floor

And my heart found its knees

I said, darling, stay

You said, maybe

The moon cut loose

And the whole room swayed

Wine-colored lines

On my mouth tonight

Wine-colored lines

You leave in the light

Come closer now

Let the whole world spin

Wine-colored lines

And I'm yours again

Oh, I'm yours again

Again, again

You lit a match with your glance

I went up in a grin

That clarinet said my secrets

Before I let them in

The pianist played those lies

Soft as a velvet blade

You kissed the rim of my name

And the silence swayed

Then the band turned mean

Just enough to tease

My heel found the floor

And my heart found its knees

I said, darling, stay

You said, maybe

The moon cut loose

And the whole room swayed

Wine-colored lines

On my mouth tonight

Wine-colored lines

You leave in the light

Come closer now

Let the whole world spin

Wine-colored lines

And I'm yours again

Oh, I'm yours again

Again, again

If this is a dare

I'll wear it well

If this is goodbye

Let the glasses tell

One last turn

One last sigh

Your hand on my waist

Like a sweet alibi

Wine-colored lines

On my mouth tonight

Wine-colored lines

You leave in the light

Come closer now

Let the whole world spin

Wine-colored lines

And I'm yours again

Oh, I'm yours again

Again, again
