This April Evening (5:16)

Took it years to grow
Took us time to petal out
Fragrance full and something
Watch you slip around
I’d die for the eyecandy of ya

Sometimes I want to live forever
Sometimes I wonder if maybe I’m dead
I’d give my kingdom for the flavor of the right kiss
I’d give my heart to save the treasured lips that sing this

And in the morning
We watch these flowers fall
I don’t want to ever be set free
This April evening
I’ll pull you behind the trees
And show you what you mean to me

Gap ‘tween me and who I want to be keeps trenching out
Crossing seconds
Hole between you and me I want to flee keeps creeping
Filled by either tears or blood or you

Sometimes I want to live forever
Sometimes I wonder if maybe I’m dead
I’d give my kingdom for the flavor of the right kiss
I’d give my heart to save the treasured lips that sing this

Waitress pours the coffee
I dance out in the clouds
Looking hoping waiting wanting
Watch you slip around
I’d die for the eyecandy of ya
I’d die I’d die I’d die

My life is a triangle of love and sex and death
So spin it round
Spin it round
Stuck between the fear of 6 and the love of 7
Spin it round
Spin it round

And in the morning we’d watch these flowers fall
I don’t want to ever be set free
This April evening I’ll pull you behind the trees
And show you what you mean to me

And in the morning when we’d watch these flowers fall
I’d lose my head to some degree
This April evening I’ll pull you behind the trees
And show you what you mean to me
