Madelyn

Settle down now, and sit with me
Let me tell you how this all came to be
A yellow flower with your petals to the air
And flying on paper wings that brought you here
Summer rolls on in the lazy hours
An ether dream with hummingbirds and clouds
Midnight swims in the cool black waves
And you in my arms as it rolls away

Born of restless nights the moon as a pearl
Playing games down inside your soft warm world
Hear my voice, I know that you can
You're the fire in my eyes, the sun as a girl
Seasons come along, and seasons go
And what they'll leave behind, I don't pretend to know
I'm afraid that all I have missed
Will loom very large when the darkness lifts

I will ride by your side, wherever you go
I won't run, I won't hide, just letting you know

Little Dandelion, let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone, all your tomorrows shine
