Better Than Wine

You ravished me with one look of your eyes
You, you are fair, you're so fair oh my love
Better than wine is your love
If you can't find me it's alright, oh my love
Stay with your friends, I will come speak to you
'Cause your are mine oh my love
And better than wine is your love

Better than wine is your love, is your love
Better than wine is your love, is your love

You are beautiful, eyes like doves, oh my love
You have lips like jewels, hair of gold, oh my love
Wild as a vine is your love,
But better than wine is your love

chorus

I tell you, my beloved
You cannot be replaced
With my left hand beneath your head
And my right hand around your waist
So take a deep breath
Because I feel a little drunk
But I'm in my right mind babe
And I know your love is much...(better than wiiiiiiiine)

Chorus

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever.... to think that our Lord feels this way about us.. about me.  Swoon.  I want to believe fully that He loves me with this kind of passionate love and i want to love Him back in such a way.

"Hey, my love, you came to me like wine comes to this mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart and you quench my mind"

Hmmm, a great wine I recently discovered is Lambrusco's Riunite... a wonderful sweet red wine.. dinner tonight... penni pasta with marinar, american cheese sauce and meatballs.... yum

Carla,
I heard the editors of Through Painted Deserts put in a special note in the new edition saying that they took out the semicolons just for you. not sure if this is true or not.

Those two lines remind me of "Your Body is a Wonderland," actually.

yep, you are correct - song of songs 2:6.

-chalee (thinks leaving out 2:5's "strengthen me with raisins..." riff was probably a good move artistically.)

kinda makes me melt, too...wait I'm a guy, gimme a steak. anywho, it does tickle that "awwww" bone in me ...wait...darnit, I'm a guy. but seriously, from seein sandra and derek together at a show, it's obvious that derek loves her. when our culture sees this song, we get that melting feeling b/c it's soo inherently good, and i personally do want that love. the paradox is that i'm part of the Church and the great union between her & Christ and am free to have that feeling of intimate love between myself and Christ; I can have that love, but I so often only find it there on Sunday mornings, if even then...hmmm  hope to not clutter the thread w/ rambling...it would be cool to get john mayer's perspective on Christ and his bride hehe[/quote]

I'm actually really glad to hear you say all of this... i was bummed that no one seems to talk about that sorta thing on the forum.... i hope the Lord does bring you to a deep intimate love with Himself.. ya i know, ok no i don't really know.. but it must be kinda hard for a guy to see himself in an intimate relationship with the Lord in such a way, being as the Lord is the bridegroom and the church His bride... but just the same He is out to woo us... if it makes you feel any better think on this... i (ok we all) get to think on Him as our heavenly bridegroom, the lover of our souls... yet we also get to see Him as our great Father... ish...  Laughing no worries though i have no doubt He'll help us to get it  Very Happy
