The night was hot and the moon was full

Something came over me

Island music played and libations flowed

A vision walked up to me

     She asked:  “Would you like to try a drink that is for to die?”

     I could not resist her

     Dandelion Wine

     Dandelion Wine


We danced the moon into the sun

Then we bathed in the waves

Our bodies one, we lost track of time

To passion our hearts were slaves

     She said:  “Wish that we could spy, into time beyond our eyes.”

     I was drinking from her lips

     Her Dandelion Wine

     Dandelion Wine


          Intoxicated,

          By the woman,

          By the wine,

          Desired one and the same.

          Soul confiscated

          An obsession

          Uncontrolled

          A yellow weed is to blame


An ocean breeze, warm soothing sands

Welcome to paradise

Lust wants for more with a price to pay

Hearts willingly sacrificed

     She mused:  “Would that we could fly, where blue ocean meets blue sky.”

     I’m already on that trip

     With her Dandelion Wine

     Her Dandelion Wine


The night was hot and the moon was full

Something came over me

Island music played and libations flowed

A vision walked up to me

     She asked:  “Would you like to try a drink that is for to die?”

     I could not resist her

     Dandelion Wine

     Dandelion Wine

     Dandelion Wine

     Dandelion Wine
