Leftover Wine Lyrics - Candles In The Rain/leftover Wine/gather Wine - Melanie

(Melanie Safka) 

What do you do when the people go home 

And what do you do when the show is all done 

I know what I'll do in the alone of my time 

But what will I do with the leftover wine 

A line from a poem of my childhood has said 

That visions of sugarplums were gonna dance in my head 

I'll spend my whole life making the time rhyme 

But I'll still have a bowl of leftover wine 

I'll spend my whole life making the time rhyme 

And then I'll sing them a song of mine 

You know I'm gonna do anything 

Just to take up time 

Cause I can't find a taker for the leftover wine 

(and) what do you do when the people go home 

And what do you do when the show is all done 

I know what I'll do in the alone of my time 

But what will I do with the leftover wine 

I'm gonna spend my whole life making the time rhyme 

And then I'm gonna run to the people 

And I'll sing them a song of mine 

You know I'm gonna do anything 

Just to take up time 

Cause I can't find a taker for the leftover wine 

I'll drink some of yours 

If you'll drink all of mine 

Because I can't stand the taste of that leftover wine 

And I'm gonna drink some of yours 

If you'll drink all of mine 

Because I can't stand the taste of leftover wine 

And I'll drink some of yours 

If you'll drink all of mine 

I can't stand the taste of leftover wine
