Purple Petals

Verse 1:
Lost at sea I’m on a boat
No waves that rock, it’s perfect
Problem is I’m all alone
Crashing and feeling attacked
Picked apart and been let go
Without my flowers intact
Waterlogged and overthrown
Cast away, landed shipwrecked

Bridge:
Floating on a petunia sea
Waters of poppy sinking deep

Chorus:
Precipitation plummets past
Purple petals never last
Drenched in poignant memories
Purple petals fall droopy
Praying for a pleasant past
Purple petals never last
I love you and you loved me
But purple petals fall droopy

Verse 2:
Cannot live on ocean waves
All I feel is undertow
I’ve been held under for days
In the murky depths below
Foggy views of violet haze
Waters of weeping willow
Drowning in a loveless place
High tides sometimes come and go

Bridge:
Floating on a petunia sea
Waters of poppy sinking deep

Chorus:
Precipitation plummets past
Purple petals never last
Drenched in poignant memories
Purple petals fall droopy
Praying for a pleasant past
Purple petals never last
I love you and you loved me
But purple petals fall droopy

Verse 3:
What happened to the old fierce rebel
He’s heartbroken on purple petals
Drifted off course, don’t you think
Will he swim or will he sink

Chorus:
Precipitation plummets past
Purple petals never last
Drenched in poignant memories
Purple petals fall droopy
Praying for a pleasant past
Purple petals never last
I love you and you loved me
But purple petals fall droopy

Praying for a pleasant past
Purple petals never last
I love you and you loved me
But purple petals fall droopy
