Lavender

You watched as I walked
Lady in red
To pick lavender from the garden
While we spoke of the future
Sowing seeds of dreams
To keep in our heads

Strategy your currency
Words with feeling, mine
Heaven-sent this connection
Lover
If we keep the faith
And walk the line

Three times you said
While with denim-blue gaze
You looked into my head
Three times the future denied

So let’s hold hands
And take that ride
