From the recording Crooked Road
Lyrics
Sweeter on the Vine
Sweet temptation, fascination
Siren song in the night
False reflection, misdirection
First mirage on the right
Hear the calling, can’t stop falling
Stepping out over the line
Perfect vision, bad decision
To pull the fruit from the vine
Chorus
Not believing what can deceive
You see faith leaping in the air
Climb the mountain up to the top
Is the ride worth the price of the fare
I was halfway gone
But I had to taste it
Had to find a way to make it mine
Didn’t last too long
Now I’m wasted
It was sweeter on the vine, sweeter on the vine
Sweeter on the vine, yeah
Grand illusion
Mass confusion
Feel so unqualified
Air brushed faces, no tear traces
Can’t see on the inside
Message sender, young and tender
Promises of delight
Perfect ending, stars still shine in the night
Ships can pass in the night
Chorus
Not believing what can deceive
You see faith leaping in the air
Climb the mountain up to the top
Is the ride worth the price of the fare
I was halfway gone
But I had to taste it
Had to find a way to make it mine
Didn’t last too long
Now I’m wasted
It was sweeter on the vine, sweeter on the vine
Sweeter on the vine, yeah
