Withered on the Vine Songtext
von Nick Lowe

I once had a true love
I thought it would last
How could I know that it would go so fast?
A love like a holiday
Tender and kind
And I let it wither on the vine

Where did it run to?
Where did it go?
How could I let it slip through my fingers so?
For it was a real love
And rare and fine
And I let it wither on the vine


But the hardest pill to swallow is still
Not the reason for you leaving
But the way I let it happen
Now I′m counting the cost
Of the loss of what was once mine
That I let wither on the vine

I once had a true love
I thought it would last
How could I know that it would go so fast?
A love like a holiday
Tender and kind
And I let it wither on the vine

Wither on the vine
