Bergamot Lyrics

Winona planted bergamot seeds

In late May and early June on the prairie

As the seeds did grow deep underground

Soon their lives would burst

Through the surface of the earth

I imagine when they were in full bloom

How the moon did swoon

Over them in love

She cries it's harvest time

Gather up the beauty & let it dry

She cries it's harvest time

Gather up the bergamot and let it dry

Now I untie the dried up bundles

Hanging above me from the sky

I sit and pick the leaves and flowers

Quiet for hours in my room

I'm sending bergamot to your bedside right away

I want you to know you are not alone

I feel lost and anxious everyday

I'm sending you bergamot from my bedside right away

I want you to know you are not alone

I am sick and dying everyday

She cries it's harvest time

Gather up the beauty and let it dry

She cries it's harvest time

Gather up the bergamot and let it dry

Oh my dear friend

You are my dear friend and I will

Stick with you through thick and thin

Oh my dear friend

You are my dear friend and I will

Stay with you till the bitter end

She cries it's harvest time

Gather up the beauty and let it dry

She cries it's harvest time

Gather up the bergamot and let it dry
