A Taste Of Honey Tony Bennett Written by Ric Marlow and Bobby Scott Peaked at # 94 in 1964: his second song to get stuck at that level in face of the surging British Invasion (see also "When Joanna Loved Me") Previously charted in 1962 by the Victor Feldman Quartet (# 88) and Martin Denny & His Orchestra (# 50) Later charted by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass at # 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
