Send me no wine
To make an invitation.
Leave me no time
In your imagination.
Only to find
Words in your mind
They're gonna make you, leave your,
Leave your heart behind.

Send me, send me no wine,
To send my love away.
Send me, send me no wine,
To send my love away.

Once in my life
I need no conversation.
All of my time
I'll spend in fascination.
Give me my love,
With you in my life.
If only everybody
Found the answer in love.

Send me, send me no wine,
To send my love away.
Send me, send me no wine,
To send my love away.
