lyrics

Dream a dream
with salty sheen,
our skin aflame
with furtive, keen
reaching, without
really meaning to,
yet leaning in
and seeing who
would be the first
to let a kiss
escape into
this tender new

The words seem crude
and clumsy to describe
the way we two
had climbed a few
trees in our time
before we knew
the risk of being blue
was maybe
worth taking,
wondering if we
should keep waiting

Just a taste of
something tangy sweet
as if a loquat
and a lime
were crushed
into a paste
and their flavors
made to rhyme,
the floral notes to chime
as if by some design

It feels like I am yours
and you are mine

Take your time
I’m on the line,
my juices flow
like sap slowly
leaking, without
really meaning to,
yet eking out,
removing doubt
that lived inside a pit
and now pours
from my mouth

Just a taste of
something tangy sweet
as if a loquat
and a lime
were crushed
into a paste
and their flavors
made to rhyme,
the floral notes to chime
as if by some design

It feels like I am hanging
ripe and ready
to be plucked,
awaiting the right hand
to come and
render me unstuck
and with a bit of luck

Just a taste of
something tangy sweet
as if a loquat
and a lime
were crushed
into a paste
and their flavors
made to rhyme,
the floral notes to chime
as if by some design

It feels like I am yours
and you are mine
