Turning It into Water Songtext

von Al Stewart

I used to have a secret cellar
Where I kept the sweetest of my wine
Now it seems that I've been too long
Hanging on the vine
And now she's turning it into water
Never be the same again
Turning it into water
All my wine tastes like the rain
Damp has peeled away my labels
I can't read the writing anymore
Nothing here to grace my table
Nothing left to store
And now she's turning it into water
Never be the same again
She's turning it into water
All my wine tastes like the rain

Go bar the cellar door
Throw out the rusty key
Won't go there anymore
There's nothing left to see
Oh, there is no mystery

Now I've lost these hopes and wishes
Never going to change the way she feels
The cupboard's bare of loaves and fishes
All that time reveals is that
She's turning it into water
Never be the same again
Turning it into water
All my wine tastes like the rain

She's turning it into water
Never be the same again
Turning it into water
All my wine tastes like the rain

Go bar the cellar door
Throw out the rusty key
Won't go there anymore
There is no mystery
Oh, here's nothing left to see
