Petals

lyrics

Petals

with my face in a basket
of pink rose petals
how did I get here?
it's no surprise
the petals smell like cinnamon
you say to eat them
you say they'll delight in me

won't you take me to that mossy bed
cover me in golden leaves
there by your side
under the pines
I feel them sigh in me

and it's hard not to wake you at first light
watch you turn your face towards mine
and it's easy like a sunset to love you
and I've been loving you
since the first drop kissed my chin

take me down to the riverbank
sing me an old old song
hold me 'til I know I belong
look at the way the light looks through the leaves
dances on the water
and laughs in you and me

and it's hard not to wake you at first light
watch you turn your smile towards mine
and it's easy like a sunset to love you
and I'll be loving you
when the next drop kisses my chin
