Waxahatchee - Fruits of My Labor lyrics

Baby, see how I been living
Velvet curtains on the windows to
See the bright and unforgiving
Light from shining through

Babe, I remember all the things we did
When we slept together
In the blue behind your eyelids
Baby, sweet baby

I traced your scent through the gloom
'Til I found these purple flowers
I was spent, I was soon
Smelling you for hours
Lavender, lotus blossoms too
Water the dirt, flowers last for you
Baby, sweet baby

Tangerines and persimmons and sugarcane
Grapes and honeydew melon
Enough fit for a queen

Lеmon trees don't make a sound
'Til branches bend and fruit
Falls to thе ground baby, sweet baby

Oh, come to my world and witness
The way things have changed
'Cause I finally did it, babe
I got out of La Grange

I got in my Mercury and drove out west
Pedal to the metal and my luck to the test
Baby, sweet baby

I been tryin' to enjoy all
The fruit's of my labor
I been cryin' for you boy
But truth is my savior

Baby, sweet baby if it's all the same
Take the glory any day over the fame
Baby, sweet baby
