They wrote about it
Light in the night sky
Turning old men into misfits
Making us able to fly
Returning from the grave
Made of ashes and dust
Just as potent and brave
A phoenix of blazing trust
Blessing the earth in the summer
A token of pure joy
They took it from her
And made it theirs to enjoy
I've gathered all my courage
And I'll gladly split it in two
I want to peel an orange
Lovingly, just for you
