I used to have a secret cellar
Where I kept the sweetest of my wine
Now it seems that I've been too long
Hanging on the vine
And now she's turning it into water
Never be the same again
She's turning it into water
All my wine tastes like the rain
Damp has peeled away my labels,
I can't read the writing any more,
Nothing here to grace my tables
Nothing left to store
And now she's turning it into water
Never be the same again
She's turning it into water
All my wine tastes like the rain
Go bar the cellar door
Throw out the rusty key
Won't go there anymore
There is no mystery
There's nothing there to see
Now I've lost these hopes and wishes
I'm never going to change the way she feels
The cupboard's bare of loaves and fishes
All that time reveals is that
She's turning it into water
Never be the same again
She's turning it into water
All my wine tastes like the rain.
