Just give me a steel guitar and a glass of wine
And let me drink to a love I thought was mine
A love I thought was true to me
But now I'm drinking to her memory

A steel guitar and a glass of wine
While my tears they glisten and the candles shine
Oh, candle glow, oh, candle bright
Tell me what she holds tonight

And bring me wine and make the music mine
Play another set so that I'll forget

Mm, bring me a steel guitar and a glass of wine
And let me toast, too, just one more time
Oh, candle glow, before you dim
Tell her what a fool she's been

And bring me wine, make the music mine
Play another set so that I'll forget

And bring me a steel guitar and a glass of wine
And let me toast, too, one more time
Oh, candle glow, before you dim
Tell her what a fool she's been

And one more thing before I go
Here's a secret, I still love her so
