Water Lilly


Firm roots hands towards the sky

Apple of my eye and theres no other contender 

Growing plans to keep your petals high

And i know you try but you better remember 

 

I need you here with me

Not in a place that I cannot be

I want you to be with me

Not way over in the freaken sea

 

Crossed hearts and growing vines

Head towards the light with your beautiful neck

Firm skin peers through the blinds

I know its on your mind and you will never forget

 

I need you here with me 

Not in a place that I cannot see

I want you to be with me

Not way over in the freaken sea

 

Silver cells let your pollen spread

I feel you love me from so far away

Fields of white when you make your bed

We will be together every day you say

 

I need you here with me

Not in a place that I cannot be

I want you to be with me

Not way over in the freaken sea

 

Close your petals during the night 

Know my desire to be with you one day

You keep sailing towards the light

After were done traveling well never say

 

I need you here with me

Not in a place that I cannot be

I want you to be with me

Not way over in the freaken sea
