Sonoak - Purple lyrics
[Sonoak - Purple lyrics]
Given I am the purple tree in your front yard
Overlooking your balcony
And I’ve never felt worse
Then when the world cut you down
Are you just sawdust now?
I could have sworn I saw you
Burning into ember then blowing away
I didn’t know you, as well as I should
To me you were a picture that lasted forever
But now I can see past what has passed me
I was the passerby in your shade for years
And I paid no mind I
Just smiled and walked by
And I never thanked you you
Were happy to watch me
Am I just a shadow cast?
Is it too late to ask?
I want appreciation covering my body
Can I be forgiven? For time didn’t grant me
The wisdom to know and hold myself close
To flames I’m afraid of what I can’t see
Are you a ghost inside of me?
I’m a pupil to you, and to time
I should listen when you say goodbye
And on the ride home I hid
My tears safe in my hands i carried them in
Through the door I held them before
My guitar i said one last song for the man
And the fact is I can’t understand it
And the sadness just blasted like static
And like magic we were young again
