The Orange Trees

Find Me.

I've long since stopped my searching,
My heart beats fathom, almost lurching...

I dream of you, you plant that kiss,
I feel your touch, more like I wish...

I see your face, and that smile,
You hold my hand for a short while...

I feel you slipping, back through the veil,
You've left a haunting, unmistakable trail...

I've stopped my searching for you now,
I've done more than my mind can allow...

I wish you'd find me, amongst the trees,
I wish you'd kiss me, amongst crunching leaves...

I hear the quiet, so painful yet clear,
My heart heaves, sighing along with the tears...

I've stopped my searching, come find me now,
Take me quickly, say your vow...

Come find me lover, amongst the trees,
Come find me lover, through crunching leaves...

Come find my name carved in script,
Inside the old and worn crypt...

Place the flowers at my feet,
Please don't shiver...
Please don't weep...

You've found me now amongst the leaves,
You've found me now where lost souls grieve...

Sweet lover mine, remember this,
Remember how we softly kissed...

Remember how I searched for you,
Remember the sun's radiant hue...

Remember darling, remember me...
Come find me amongst the fallen leaves...
