Scent Of A Flower
Jackson Turner - 《Long Time Coming》
作曲 Soulspeak Elliot G Nkese P
You got the scent of a flower maybe thats where you got your name
I sensed your prowess way before I looked upon your face
Baby I could see your misery I could feel your pain
Lay your head against my chest again and everything will be ok
Emotion’s like a waterfall it always rains
Sink into the ocean of my heart I’ll wash your tears away
I want to hold you in my loving embrace
You’ve been drinking steadily at least a couple of days
Hair disheveled crying breasts are pressed against your knees
Absolutely the most beautifulest thing I’ve ever seen
Your dress is like the fence that separates me from your heart
Super thin and yet its presence nevertheless just says it all
Baby I’m a flower swaying gently in the evening breeze
Promise not to pluck me if you love me you will let me be
And I’ll decide if its you
But deep inside I know its you
Theres something about you in every way you’re unique
A day without you seems as if its ages to me
Afraid you’ll leave me stranded disappear as quickly as you came
And be that ghost that haunts me every year on Halloween
Blind folded forward step
Not a clue of where I’m going I just hope there’s no regrets
You seem to rise above convention fall below conceit
You might not live up to perfection
But I swear to you your perfect for me
Don’t know if this will comfort
But what does stop your heart will only toughen it
I wish I could have held you every time you lost a loved one
I promise as your lover or your friend my respect will cost you nothing
To make me honey bee as happy as can be
Maybe I’ll be your one and only
If you swear to me that you’ll take care of me
Boy promise your words are true
And I’ll forever love you
I guess in life we have to manage with the cards where handed
A standoff with the course of fate
Its all a gamble and its oh so random
But still I’m anxious I don’t want to give up
I need to be the source of your revival
Not the change up in your tip cup
You’re stuck between a rock and brick
And I can tell you’ve got emotions that you’re scared to admit
If I became the one you broke his heart for would you start to hate me?
If he knew what went on between us would you walk away?
I never gave an ultimatum to you
Never asked for nothing but approval
It takes two to tango making love is beautiful
You can’t pretend you’re undecided
Surrender to the wind and you can ride it
Baby I’m a flower swaying gently in the evening breeze
Promise not to pluck me if you love me you will let me be
And I’ll decide if its you
But deep inside I know its you
Its you you you you you you you you
