Petals

I will hold your clothes

Watch you as you swim

Naked under those

Petals you call skin

I will hold your clothes

Watch you from the shore

Watch you breathing water and know that

No one loves you more

I will hold your clothes

As you dive underneath

Understand what God can do

When he brings to my life, believe

I will hold your clothes

Watch you as you swim

Naked under those

Petals you call skin

I will hold your clothes

Watch you from the shore

Watch you breathing water and know that

No one loves you more

Except maybe God, and some besides

Old friends that he trusts

As they talk about creation days

They're smiling down on us

Jesus and Iscariot

They hold hands with pride

I just hold your clothes and watch you swim

And I smile and sigh

I will hold your clothes

Watch you as you swim

Naked under those

Petals you call skin

You call skin
