Approaching Lavender |
If you’d like to spend the afternoon approaching lavender |
You’ll feel just fine but one thing’s sure |
You’ll never be the same |
If you’d like to try your hand at understanding lavender |
Then you must be very sure |
That life is not a game |
You might even learn a thing or two approaching lavender |
You’ll soon be on a one night tour |
Forgetting your own name |
You won’t need a reason just to be alone with lavender |
For the light so warm and pure |
Will draw you like a flame |
The colors that surround you there will be the shade of lavender |
Shadows dancing everywhere |
Like flowers in the rain |
You will find your tongue’s on fire while lying next to lavender |
With words you never spoke before |
And will not speak again |
Oh sweet lavender I understand you perfectly |
There is no way that I can see |
You living by yourself |
Oh sweet lavendar I must be with you constantly |
Your presence means so much to me |
Much more that life itself |
Oh sweet lavender as fragrant as the name you bear |
Please cast away the clothes you wear |
And give your love to me |
Oh sweet lavender your smile is like the golden sun |
I’d love to see you laugh and run |
As naked as the sea |
If you’d like to spend the afternoon approaching lavender |
Don’t try and get the best of her |
She will not share the blame |
If you’d like to try your hand at understanding lavender |
Then you must be very sure |
That life is not a game |
There is no shame |
