Petrichor Lyrics

The leaves are dancing

Moved by the summer breeze

The boys are playing and laughing by the trees

I rock my chair slowly

No one could take this moment from me

The bells are ringing

Can't seem to hear them now

I call out for them

The clouds are getting darker now

Don't play these silly games

Dinner's getting colder, my dears

Night has fallen

The moon can't light my way to you, oh no

The skies weep as the worst of my dreams are comin' true

The shadows came and took you out of sight

No hope for guiding light

My sinking heart does no more than survive

Winter is colder

With no hand to hold

Faces passing by in a blur

They've no thought for me

Just some blind regret

Can we just skip this story

To the end?

Stars paint what I gazed at when I saw you last

Tears all burn in fires of our future past

On the road I feel your souls inside me bloom, my darlings

I sigh and breathe in the petrichor of early June

I see your lights that guide me through the night, stronger with every sight

I close my eyes to feel you one last time
