Dennis or Denis is either the first or last name of a male derived from the Greco-Roman name Dionysius meaning the Thracian god of wine, which is ultimately derived from the Greek Dios (Διός, "of Zeus") combined with Nysos or Nysa (Νυσα), where the young god was raised.[citation needed]. Dionysus (or Dionysos; also known as Bacchus in Roman mythology and associated with the Italic Liber), the Thracian god of wine, represents not only the intoxicating power of wine, but also its social and beneficent influences. He is viewed as the promoter of civilization, a lawgiver, and lover of peace — as well as the patron deity of both agriculture and the theater.
Dionysus is a god of mystery religious rites, such as those practiced in honor of Demeter and Persephone at Eleusis near Athens. In the Thracian mysteries, he wears the "bassaris" or fox-skin, symbolizing new life. (See also Maenads)
The mediaeval Latinised form of the Anglo-Norman surname Le Denys was Dacus, the adjectival form of Dacia, meaning "Danish" or "The Dane". The name became modernised as Denys, then later as Dennis.
I swore tonight that I would behave like an actual civilized man
But when when you walked in and you made me rethink my whole plan, my whole plan
They always say you can get what you want but have to be willing to ask
Well in two more drinks I'll be ready to beg oh I swear oh I swear
Want me to make any promises
Well I will
Want me take some more time with this
Well I will
Want me to say I've been wantin this
Well I will
I will
I will
All I know is as long as you stay you're not goin anywhere
We got a few friends waiting and it we're making them late I don't care I don't care
All I want is to wake up tomorrow not knowing how I got in your bed
And you've been thinking the same about me I can tell I can tell
Want me to make any promises
Well I will
Want me take some more time with this
Well I will
Want me to say I've been wantin this
Well I will
I will
