Beth Orton - Petals lyrics

[Beth Orton - Petals lyrics]

Petals pour from themselves in
A synchronized swim
They’d been held to the stem
As though holding their breath
Collectively they agree to exhale and be free
Now one after another they tumble
Silently oblivious to me
The ashes of last night sigh into a heap

Petals pour from themselves in
A synchronized swim
I am woken in a moment as they break the air
Disintegrate integrate with resigned grace
Lining up to jump they remind me of tears
Sudden and many fall i look to you
Your empty chair and then I remember
Why there's lilac in the air

My tears well up and cry for you
My tears well up and cry for you
My tears well up and cry for you


My tears well up and cry for you

There's wet in my hair and I never knew
My tears well up and cry for you
My tears well up and cry for you
My tears well up and cry for you

My tears, my tears my tears, my tears
My tears, my tears these are my tears
