Going through a box of my old things
I found a couple pictures from the summer I turned 18
It was you and me and that fire beside the lake
We didn't know how much time we had but we knew how much we'd take
Huckleberry wine will always remind me of your smile
The summer we had nothing but time to fall in love by the campfire
Your eyes shined as bright as that August moon
That told me you'd be far away too soon
So we made the most of our precious time
We drank the rest of that huckleberry wine
That was the last time that I saw your face
You left in the morning for Arizona State
We always swore that we'd call and that we'd write
But I know life gets in the way and you just can't fine the time
Huckleberry wine will always remind me of your smile
The summer we had nothing but time to fall in love by the campfire
Your eyes shined as bright as that August moon
That told me you'd be far away too soon
So we made the most of our precious time
We drank the rest of that huckleberry wine
We snuck out with a bottle of wine, had ourselves the time of our lives
Just a couple kids with stars in our eyes
Huckleberry wine will always remind me of your smile
The summer we had nothing but time to fall in love by the campfire
Your eyes shined as bright as that August moon
That told me you'd be far away too soon
So we made the most of our precious time
We drank the rest of that huckleberry wine
