This deceptively simple and melodic backwoods-flavored folk song lets the ink run out of the pen, so grab the corkscrew and relax! “But I have blackberry wine, intermittent sunshine, a hammock under a sycamore tree…”

Blackberry Wine by Maureen Paraventi Copyright 2010 All Rights Reserved
So many pages written on.
I thought I’d have a better story by now.
So many dreams have come and gone.
I thought I’d have some fame and glory by now.
But I have blackberry wine, intermittent sunshine.
A hammock under a sycamore tree.
And I have paperbacks to read. A garden to weed.
Good friends and good times, and I have you.
So many days have rolled along.
I thought I’d have some questions answered by now.
But all those things that I thought were wrong.
When you’re with me don’t matter much at all.
Chorus
But all those things that I thought were wrong
When you’re with me don’t matter much at all.
