Grapes Upon the Vine Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My hair won't fall out, though I may go gray
I may forgive but I won't admit
That any hope it was sunken yet
Beauty faded or flowers dead
Maybe the sun was aligned but the moon was wrong
And stars don't lie but they do reflect
They do neglect sometimes to tell the whole truth, baby

[Chorus]
There ain't no check within your mailbox
So don't go changing with the times
There ain't no Kool-Aid in your poison anymore
There ain't no comfort in the bottle
For a grape upon a vine

[Post-Chorus]
(You can't shove it out)
(You can't shove it out)
(You can't shove it out)
(You can't shove it out)

[Verse 2]
(Even though) And even though we were too young to know
If lovers loved like us before
We can let it slide and both agree
It was only you and me
And I may give up, though I won't concede
But it isn't fate that shakes the trees
It's the ancient forces of boredom and lust and greed, now baby

[Chorus]
Ooh, there ain't no check within your mailbox
There's too much sand upon the slide
There ain't no mirrors in this funhouse anymore
There ain't no comfort in the bottle
For a grape upon a vine

[Post-Chorus]
(You can't shove it out)
(You can't shove it out)
(You can't shove it out)
(You can't shove it out)
(Said you'd go)
