Taste Of Honey
Herb Alpert · Other Songs - Herb Alpert
But I'll take with me the warmth of thee
A taste of honey
A taste much sweeter than wine
He will return
He will return
He'll come back
For the honey and me
I'll leave behind my heart to wear
And may it e'er remind you of
A taste of honey
A taste much sweeter than wine
He will return
He will return
He'll come back
For the honey and me
