The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful Stop me and steal my breath And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky Never revealing their depth Tell me that we belong together Dress it up with the trappings of love I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above I'll be your cryin' shoulder I'll be love's suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life And rain falls angry on the tin roof As we lie awake in my bed You're my survival, you're my living proof My love is alive and not dead Tell me that we belong together Dress it up with the trappings of love I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above I'll be your cryin' shoulder I'll be love's suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life And I've dropped out, I've burned up I fought my way back from the dead Tuned in, turned on Remembered the things that you said I'll be your cryin' shoulder I'll be love's suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your... I'll be your cryin' shoulder I'll be love's suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life The greatest fan of your life

He was working through college on my grandpa's farm I was thirsting for knowledge and he had a car, yeah I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child One restless summer we found love growing wild On the banks of the river, on a well beaten path It's funny how those memories they last Like strawberry wine, and seventeen The hot July moon saw everything My first taste of love Oh, bittersweet and green on the vine Like strawberry wine Well, I still remember when thirty was old My biggest fear was September when he had to go A few cards and letters and one long-distance call We drifted away like the leaves in the fall But year after year, I come back to this place Just to remember the taste Of strawberry wine, and seventeen The hot July moon saw everything My first taste of love Oh, bittersweet and green on the vine Like strawberry wine The fields have grown over now Years since they've seen the plow There's nothing time hasn't touched Is it really him or the loss of my innocence I've been missing so much, yeah Strawberry wine, and seventeen The hot July moon saw everything My first taste of love Oh, bittersweet and green on the vine Like strawberry wine, and Seventeen The hot July moon saw everything My first taste of love Oh, bittersweet and green on the vine Like strawberry wine Strawberry wine, oh Strawberry wine
