A Taste Of Honey Tony Bennett (#94 in 1964), Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass (#7 in 1965)

Winds may blow over the icy sea
I'll take with me the warmth of thee
A taste of honey
A taste much sweeter than wine
 
    I will return
    I'll return
    I'll come back for the honey and you

 
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
   Chorus
 
He ne'er came back to his love so fair
And so she died dreaming of his kiss
His kiss of honey
A taste more bitter than wine 
  Chorus
