Orchids

I won't get mad and I won't break in two

'Cause I understand you

Now take this change

And let my clothes soak with rain

As I study orchid blues

And some can't live

Unless they feed on fallen leaves

And so you'll let me down

To come alive

When you comfort me

I've watched you change

I've heard your words rearrange

Played back from the start

And if I did teach you anything at all

I hope it was to love with all your heart

And lie open wide

With imperfect symmetry

And so you'll love like you

And I will love like me

And to be reborn

They have to go to sea

And so, angel, you will have to set me free
