Old World Wine
Michael Cummins, Julian Mueller & Jay Ottaway

We find the going difficult
Way's a little rough
Attic's stuffed with memories
Old photographs and such
Both of us collectors
Clinging to our past
Sipping on old Bordeaux
Nursing every glass

And like some ageless fable, never coming true
The years change on the labels, quickly slip from view

In our new world
We're drinking old world wine
In our new world
We're drinking old world wine – Old world wine!

We make it up together
As we go a long
Surface may get shaky
But cellar walls are strong
Both of us invested
In little things we love
Some we bought with silver
Some come from up above

And like some ageless fable, never coming true
The years change on the labels, quickly slip from view

In our new world
We're drinking old world wine
In our new world
We're drinking old world wine - Old world wine!

Now let us sip in silence
There's work for us to do
Another bottle's opened
A glass for me and you

And like some ageless fable, never coming true
The years change on the labels, quickly slip from view

​In our new world
​We're drinking old world wine
​In our new world
​We're drinking old world wine - Old world wine!
