Lyrics Laura Veirs

Laura Veirs

Tangerine

Tangerine you're ripe on the tree

And then you fall

But don't we all

My sweet tangerine

And I don't want to be there

When you fall

And do we have

Just this one chance that's all

Tangerine my favorite color

Next to green

Beautiful scene

So fleeting it seems

And I don't want to be there

When you fall

And do we have

Just this one chance that's all

Tangerine falling

Out of the sky

Tangerine calling

"Why?"

Tangerine so luscious sweet

In a world so mean

When you go you'll

Be everything but green

And I don't want to be there

When you fall

And do we have

Just this one chance that's all
