Marigolds
The word that you
Had found for me
A favorite sound of mine
It swayed under a canopy
To fill the end of time
I was the only one this century
To remind you all is fine
With every 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
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)
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
And 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 wanna 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 every truth there is a mystery
With a vision so divine
Wish that I had met you
When your heart was safe to hold
When you were simple and fancy
In that field of marigolds
