Bitter Wine

Bon Jovi

Transposer:

Intro: (2x) We met some time ago when we were almost young It never crossed my mind to ask where did you come from? I didn’t have much money so I stole you a rose You were dressed like an orphan in Salvation Army clothes Pre-Chorus 1: I never thought I’d lose ya no - I’d rather go blind I thought I saw the future but the fortune teller lied Chorus 1: Your love was my salvation it could always get me high What was once holy water tastes like bitter wine I know I wasn’t funny but you laughed at all my jokes When I was choking on the words to say you shoved your finger down my throat The first night I said I loved you you told me to go to hell You were giving me head on that creaky old bed at the Ol’ Duvol Motel Pre-Chorus 2: Just like everything even good love has to die Ain’t no sympathy when it says goodbye **Chorus 1 **Solo: **Pre-Chorus 2 No one even cried we’re one of a kind one of a kind Chorus 2: Love left me stranded at the station and the last train’s gone by What was once holy water tastes like bitter wine Chorus 3: Your love was my salvation it could always get me high You take the "bag" of holy water now all that’s left is bitter wine Ending:

La chanson parle d'une relation passionnelle qui, au départ, semblait promise à l'avenir, mais qui a finalement dérivé vers la désillusion. Le narrateur se souvient d'un amour qui lui offrait un réconfort immense, presque divin, mais il réalise que cette once de pureté s'est transformée en amertume et désespoir. Ce qui était auparavant une source de joie se révèle être un souvenir douloureux, comme un vin amer au lieu de l'eau bénite qu'il espérait. Elle évoque des moments intimes, des promesses faites et brisées, ainsi que la tristesse face à la perte d'un amour unique. Le passage du temps a emporté cette passion, laissant le narrateur à l'abandon, comme un voyageur qui a raté son train. L'idée est que même les plus beaux amours peuvent s'éteindre et devenir douloureux, apportant un sentiment de nostalgie et de regret.
