Petrichor |
It hasn’t rained six months or more |
Until today, a sudden pour |
Now I can smell the petrichor outside |
The sighing ground gives up its love |
Unto the breeze and the trees above |
And suddenly your phantom shoves my side |
I don’t need you |
I don’t need you |
I don’t need you |
But I sure want you |
I never loved you more than when |
I turned and walked into the wind |
And left you leaning on no friend of mine |
I walked straight, didn’t turn my head |
The hardest thing I ever did |
Seabirds wheeling overhead and crying |
I don’t need you |
I don’t need you |
I don’t need you |
But I sure want you |
I wish I knew the names of things |
Trees and flowers, birds that sing |
You’re much better at that kind of thing than I |
And I don’t know these stars up here |
You’d fill me in if you were near |
You taught me 'petrichor', our secret sigh |
I don’t need you |
I don’t need you |
I don’t need you |
But I sure want you |
I sure want you |
I want you |
Yes, I want you |
