I won by turning green but at what cost?

The glass was raised, the fired rose
The fullness of the wine, the dim last toasting
While at port, adieu or die
A choke of grief, heart hardened, I
Beyond belief, a broken man, too tough to cry

Surf's up, mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
Aboard a tidal wave
Come about hard and join
The young and often spring you gave
I heard the word
Wonderful thing
A children's song

Wtf does columnated ruins domino even mean? I'm starting to think Mike Love was right all along

What vidya?
