A little Norah Jones-Diana Krall vibe, perhaps? Pop, jazz, blues, soul. It's in there. Katie Kuffel, an amazing talent and songwriter par excellance sings on this song, which I wrote. Thanks, Katie!

lyrics

Bitter Wine
© November 27, 2015 by David Nyro

Oooooo Oooooo Ooooooo Ooooooo
Bitter wine is on my lips
Bitter wine is on my fingertips
There was a line should never crossed
So many lines, and I got lost

Show me you care just a little bit more
I might be drunk but I’m not on the floor
Standing in the shadows - I’m trying not to fall
But if we don’t see the light, we’re going
to lose it all Ooooooo

Ooh, our love is like bitter wine
Poured out my heart, before its time
You know those sour grapes on the vine . . .
Can sweeten so in the warm sunshine
But all the cloudy days got piled up in endless rows
You know those cold, dark shadows
Where nothing grows whoa – oh oh oh -
whoa – oh – oh - oh whoa - oh oh oh

Show me you care just a little bit more
I might be drunk but I’m not on the floor
Standing in the shadows - I’m trying not to fall
But if we don’t see the light, we’re going
to lose it all Oooooo
Bridge:
Stars in love dancing above us
Round and round, intoxicating
Your eyes to mine
We’ve got a secret, the whole world knows,
everything glows in harmony, in Tuscany, where we both proposed,
to love and hold forever, endlessly . . .

Bitter wine is on my lips
Bitter wine is on my fingertips
There was a line should never crossed
So many lines, and I got lost
But all the cloudy days got piled up in endless rows
You know those cold, dark shadows
Where nothing grows
O o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
