Marigolds

The word that you had found for me
That favorite sound of mine it swayed under your canopy
To fill the end of time

I was the only one this century
To remind you all is fine
With any truth there is a mystery
With a vision so divine

I wish that I had met you when your heart was safe to hold
When you were simple and fancy in that field of marigolds

And when you burned the sentiment like a candle next to mine
The southern wind, it kept the flame flickering in time

I wanted everything to be confused and the mission not aligned
But when I looked into your sacred eyes I was empty with no surprise

When I wasn't so happy
I would say a prayer of old
When we were simple and fancy
In that field of marigolds

I wish that I could grow up with you
I want to see the world the way you do
I want to fall off the edge with you
I want to fall with you

I was the only one this century to remind you all is fine
With any truth there is a mystery with a vision so divine

I wish that I had met you when your heart was safe to hold
When you were simple and fancy in that field of marigolds
