Drink to me drink to me Drink to me drink to me Drink to me Verse 1: A rose a carnation the lily and an orchid Make such a pretty bouquet (drink to me drink to me) But only the orchid was worthy of you So I threw all the others away (drink to me drink to me) Then you took the orchid and you breathed on its petals And after a day or two The flower still blooms but the scent’s not the orchids It carries the savor of you Drink to me drink to me Drink to me drink to me Drink to me Verse 2: So if you are going to drink to me drink with your eyes And I will never cry for wine (drink to me drink to me) Or leave a kiss in an empty coffee cup Then pass it from your lips to mine (drink to me drink to me) Because I’ve got a thirst burning way down in my soul And honey from a sugar tree Is not half as sweet as the air that you breathe Honey come here and drink to me Drink to me drink to me Drink to me drink to me Drink to me

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un désir profond d'amour et de connexion. Elle compare les fleurs d'un bouquet, où l'orchidée se distingue par sa beauté unique et son lien avec la personne aimée. L’artiste parle de ce que cela signifie de partager un moment précieux, que ce soit en buvant ensemble ou en se regardant dans les yeux, soulignant que les plaisirs matériels, comme le vin, ne peuvent égaler la passion et l'intensité de leurs sentiments. Le contexte pourrait être une réflexion sur les relations amoureuses, où l’authenticité et la simplicité d’un regard ou d’un geste peuvent avoir plus de valeur qu’un simple toast. Cette chanson nous rappelle l’importance de la profondeur dans les moments partagés.
