FINE WINE Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing At five o’clock, I’m on a kick, I don’t want coffee, don’t want tea Up on a shelf - what do I see A fine red wine waiting for me Fine wine, fine wine, fine wine, REPEAT I start cooking up some food The aroma smells so good Better wait – I know I should I can’t resist, I wish I could Fine wine, fine wine, fine wine, REPEAT You can try the wine you please: Chardonnay or Pinot Gris Pinot Noir, Rosé, Merlot Sauvignon, Malbec, Bordeaux Riesling, Shiraz, Zinfandel All will go down very well Some are dry, some are sweet They go with everything you eat Maybe I should go to France To sample wines and find romance Or maybe go to Italy And sip my wine in Capri Fine wine, fine wine, fine wine, REPEAT But fine wine is very near In the Western Hemisphere California, here I come Washington and Oregon Fine wine, fine wine, fine wine, REPEAT I like your flavor rich and round – not too tart and not too sweet I like your tannin, not too dry – so you’ll go well with what I eat Fine wine, etc.

DAY TRIP TO MARTHA’S VINEYARD Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing She is on the ferry bound, heading for Oak Bluffs town Crossing over seas of blue, waiting for a glimpse or two Cousins meet her at the dock - fun times are starting to rock She’s where she wants to be – reunited with her family Winding down the quaint main street, gingerbread houses compete Relaxing in the ocean air - there's no pressure to be anywhere Vineyard Haven’s not far – they have lunch at the Black Dog bar Together with her family, going on a shopping spree SUMMER, LAZY SUMMER, YOUR DAYS REALLY FLY IN JUNE, IT’S HELLO, IN AUGUST IT’S GOODBYE They make a stop in Edgartown, where Captain's homes abound And take a walk along South beach and listen to the seagulls’ screech They head back to West Tisbury for champagne, crackers and brie Together with her family, they're nurturing the family tree They talk about everything; she plays guitar, they sing It’s great that they can share this way; it feels right, and she wants to stay But the time has come to go, and August traffic is slow She must leave her family, and their kind hospitality SUMMER, LAZY SUMMER,. ETC. She is on the ferry now - but she’ll be back again The journey doesn’t take that long - it’s been great to see her ken Thanks to dear, old Martha and her beautiful Vineyard isle The memories she creates will last a long, long while If the weather’s clear in Newport, one can see the Gay Head light When the last ray is fading and day’s moving into night The island is a temptress, calling you to come back Stuck and playing in your head like a familiar sound track… Summer, lazy, etc

LEMONADE Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing Life’s full of problems, we must overcome Nobody keeps me under their thumb Huff and puff, you won’t blow my house down Yell and scream, I will still hold my ground If you throw a curve ball, aimed right at me I’ll bat that ball into infinity Put up walls, I’ll knock ‘em down Have a party and invite the whole town REFRAIN: If you give me lemons, I make lemonade, Toss me a lemon, I make lemonade You know those yellow fruits that are tart to eat I turn them into something sweet If you give me lemons, I make lemonade Fool me once, shame on you, Fool me twice, shame on me I’m a quick study – try me and see Words are important, gotta’ mean what you say But it’s actions that count, anyway Just give me the lemons, I’ll make a sorbet REFRAIN Gonna’ let nobody make me feel sad Gonna’ let nobody make me get mad Gonna’ let nobody get in my way Just try it, come on now, make my day! REFRAIN Come on, give me lemons, I'll make lemonade, Toss me some lemons, I'll make lemonade, etc.

I WANT MY LIFE BACK Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing I’m tired of computers that are breaking down I’m fed up with remotes that can’t be found I’m sick of machines that I’m addicted to There’s more in life I want to pursue I’m bored with the ads that they target at me Hopin’ to sell me stuff I think is crappy I’m wastin’ my time so frivolously – It’s time to shut it down! I’m mad about the Russians meddling in my life I want my identity to survive I’m stressed out by all of the breaking news Anchors and talking heads get me confused I don’t want politicians tellin’ me how to vote Or lose weight programs designed for my bloat I’ve had it with machines – they really get my goat – it’s time to shut it down! REFRAIN: I WANT MY LIFE BACK, 3 more x's Bridge: Maybe I’ll create a new reality Away from keyboards, unshackled and free I'll swim to the buoy and lie by the sea And study clouds and write my own poetry Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, etc. Don’t want carpal tunnel in my hand I’ll get up from the screens and I’ll take a stand Turn off distractions that are at my command – it’s time to shut it down For all of you out there that want to find a way To slow the high speed that we run to each day This song is for you – it’ll be OK – it’s time to shut it down! I WANT MY LIFE BACK, etc. REPEAT

EACH YEAR TOGETHER WE GROW Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing When I get home at night, I wonder where you are Even if I’m mad at you, I want you to know That I’m glad to see you Moods pass like the clouds I hope you feel the same way too Sometimes when we argue, I get fierce You know how to humor me, I turn away So you won’t see my smile Moods pass like the clouds I’m back to normal in a short while REFRAIN: A glass of red wine in front of a fire We are getting cozy, sitting side by side The sun has just gone down, but the night has just begun We ebb and flow just like the restless tide We’re full and wane like phases of the moon We’re calm and blustery like the fickle winds that blow Look at us, together we grow Each year together, each year together Each year together we grow Each year together, through the changing weather Each year together we grow each day Each year together we grow When I forget my thoughts, you’re standing by You help me fill in the blanks - I do the same for you We complement each other But we’re different, just the same Each day we discover something new I like to see my world through your eyes You see what I often miss, I like your point of view You enrich my life, there’s much I want to learn I am better when I’m with you REFRAIN

LOVE SONG to CUBA Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing I’ve heard about you for all of my life Finally, I’ve come to your shore This beautiful island, all the people I’ve met Have left me wanting more and more REFRAIN: Cuba, Cuba-Cuba Cuba, Cuba-Cuba Cuba, Cuba-Cuba Cuba, Cuba-Cuba I’ve seen your cities, and country and hills Royal palms and tall Ceiba trees I’ve lain on your beaches, drunk your mojitos on the sand Next to your turquoise-blue seas REFRAIN LA, LA, LA, LA. etc Rhythms surround me – the drums and guitars Trumpets and sweet melodies I’ve learned your movements, your shimmy and shake I dance salsa, wherever I please REFRAIN Cuba, I've come to your shore. You've given memories that will last forever more Cuba, te amo, te amo, je t'adore You'll stay in my heart forever Cuba, I love to come back to Cuba

YOU, YOU, YOU Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing Sometimes I lie awake and wonder Where have my dreams gone from the past I close my eyes – who should appear But you, you, you I know that we are bound together Maybe our paths will cross again Somewhere, somehow, a way will appear Back to you, you, you Back to you Fragments of the past A puzzle in the making Putting all the pieces back in place A colorful mosaic of moments and memories Of my times together with you What will become of the future? Our time on earth will end one day Is there a place where I can go To find you, you, you Repeat verse one It's you, you, you,you Always you, you, you You, you, you

Guess I've Got the Music in Me Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing What are the words to this song Can’t remember, I’ll hum along And keep dancing to the 4/4 beat Wavin’ my hands, an' movin’ my feet Music carries, carries me away (Repeat) It’s Friday night - I am pumped No work tomorrow, no mid-weak slump Got 2 days to celebrate Stay up ‘til dawn and sleep in late Music carries, carries me away (Repeat) REFRAIN: I’ll follow the Pied Piper anywhere I’ll swim with the Sirens of the sea I’ll skip with Munchkins down the yellow brick road Guess I’ve got the music in me I’ll let Fred Astaire twirl me on the floor I’ll sing in the Alps with the Von Trap family The sound of music sets me free Guess I’ve got the music, guess I’ve got the music in me The DJ’s playing an 80’s tune I first heard it in Cancun The floor is shaking, the club’s alive It’s gettin’ crowded, but I will thrive Music carries, carries me away I know the year I heard each song Each memory is very strong Music marks times in my life Cuts to the core, just like a knife Music carries, carries me away (Repeat) REFRAIN Guess I've got, guess I've got the music in me Guess I've got, guess I've got the music in me

I WILL TRY Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing Do I wait forever, put my plans on hold? Why should I expect a change at all? If we can’t come together And get it right this time Maybe it’s just not meant to be at all REFRAIN: I will try, I will try, try with all my might To be good for you The only thing, the only thing, the only thing I ask is Will you do this too? BRIDGE: We don’t have to be alone when we walk through the night We'll comfort one another and turn darkness into light None of us can be an island standing on their own I will comfort you – just pick up the phone We are quite unique, but we’re also alike Sharing the same earth for the time being Two flowers in a garden, called by a different name Living to survive, hoping to thrive REFRAIN: I will try, I will try, try with all my might To be good for you The only thing, the only thing, the only thing I ask is Will you do this too?

I’M SORRY Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing I let you down, I left you flat I walked out the door and that was that And baby, I was done with you! I wonder now what went on I’ve come to the conclusion that I was wrong (uh-oh) And now, I’m wondering what to do REFRAIN: I’m sorry, so sorry, so sorry, For all of the for that things that I put your through I’m sorry, so sorry, so sorry, I was wrong, and now I’m missing you Why did we fight, I don’t know? All these feelings just come and go Tension, as minor gripes accrue The tip of the iceberg’s the starting place We need to work down to its base Unravel each other one’s point of view REFRAIN: I’m sorry, so sorry, so sorry, for all of the things that I put your through I’m sorry, so sorry, so sorry, I was wrong, and now I’m missing you I was stupid to leave so fast I expected romance that could not last Here’s hoping we can set things right Will you take me back again? I wanna’ be with my best friend Come over, I’ll cook you dinner tonight REFRAIN: I’m sorry, so sorry, so sorry, For all of the things that I put you through I’m sorry, so sorry, so sorry, I was wrong, and now I'm missing you – now I'm missing, you

GO GRANNY, GO!

NOW THAT IT'S OVER Music and Lyrics ©2019, Terry Taffinder Grosvenor R&T Grosvenor Publishing Though I know we come from different worlds A million miles apart All I have to do is hear your voice It cuts through to my heart You were here with me but now you’ve gone I feel so empty inside I wish you could come back to me To make me feel alive REFRAIN: I sit by my window watching the clouds passing by I listen to music we shared; it makes my cry All this feeling is heavy inside me but what can I do? Wherever you are now, I still love you. Though I know we’re not together now We’re really not apart You’re in my thoughts and all our memories Are carried deep in my heart As I loved you, so I miss you now It doesn’t go away No links of time will ever change my dream To be with you one day REFRAIN: I look up at the stars and I find myself calling your name I’ve searched people’s faces for you but they’re never the same All this feeling is heavy inside me but what can I do Wherever you are now, I still love you I see you on the street, but then I realize The person looks like you, with someone else’s eyes I sense you in a snowflake that lands on my nose You whisper to me in the gentle wind that blows When a dove comes a calling and sits outside my door I feel you’ve come to tell me, “Don’t be lonely anymore" I fell you've come to tell me, "Don't be lonely anymore."

about

This album is like a fine wine – it is intoxicating and gets better and better with each listening. The songs have lots of flavor, rhythm and harmony. Sample and enjoy!

Fine Wine is Terry Grosvenor’s 11th album, filled with a wide variety of original songs, utilizing different styles – pop, rock, folk, country, ballads and blues.

Her perspective is unique, and she writes, arranges and performs all the music and vocal tracks herself. Like a bottle of fine vintage wine, Terry’s life has been well lived, with many rich experiences.

This album includes playful, funny songs, such as: Fine Wine, Lemonade, I Want My Life Back, Guess I’ve Got The Music In Me and Go Granny, Go. Other tracks are about insights into personal relationships, family ties and memories about those that are no longer with us: Each Year Together, You, You, You, I Will Try, Sorry, and Reflections. Several recent trips inspired Love Song To Cuba and Day Trip To Martha’s Vineyard.

Terry loves the creative process. Each day is a gift – full of opportunities and more chances to give form to something that wasn’t there before.
