[Verse 1]
Bougainvilleas on the vine
Victrola singing Patsy Cline
Had your back against the wall
Cigarettes and chlorine
Midnight at the marquee
Yeah, you kissed me in the hall
[Chorus]
And I gave up on you calling me up
A drink or three ago
Yeah, I know you won’t but I hope you do
And that’s just me, you know
I’m all dressed up with nowhere to go
Getting drunk in the afternoon
Red wine and blue
[Verse 2]
Close my eyes so I can hear
The words you whispered in my ear
On the balcony (
[?] I’ve ever kissed)
Your floor picking up my dress
And your heart beating on my chest
Does your bed feel like me?
[Chorus]
And I gave up on you calling me up
A drink or three ago
Yeah, I know you won’t but I hope you do
And that’s just me, you know
I’m all dressed up with nowhere to go
Getting drunk in the afternoon
Red wine and blue
[Bridge]
Bougainvilleas on the vine
Did I dream this up in my mind?
Did I dream this up in my mind?
[Chorus 2]
Yeah I gave up on you calling me up
A drink or three ago
I know you won’t but I hope you do
And that’s just me, you know
I’m all dressed up, nowhere to go
Guess I’m still hung up on you
Red wine and blue
