Cinnamon Garden

I saw you first in silhouette

Indigo blue on jealous green

Wavering past the lilac trees

Under a tinsel sun

I couldn't hear the words at first

Love was dying like the afternoon

Ultramarine the lilac trees

Under a tinsel sun

You told me love was fading fast

Your face was jade on jealous green

I walked you past the lilac trees

Enter Cinnamon Gardens

I saw you last in silhouette

Indigo blue on jealous green

Leukemia pale the lilac trees

Under a tinsel sun

A bitter taste of ginger tears

Crimson stings fall white as grief

You rippled past the lilac trees

Remember Cinnamon Gardens
