Lavender Amelie

(专辑： Uncertain Joys - 2023)

You are the purple in the picture on my wall
Words of a sonnet I recite behind my door
All the equations they could make, apart they fall

How long has it been now, Lavender Amelie?
Since the day I met you, since the day I set you up in my mind

I make a mirror of your faces and your moods
In this abyss of all I miss of how you move
Now every day is an empty space, what's left to lose?

How long has it been now, Lavender Amelie?
Since the day I met you, since the day I set you up in my mind (My mind)
How long've you been now living up there rent-free?
Feelings hard to sever, not that I could ever decide to try (To try)

All that I have left is a distant melody
Row me down the river and out into the sea
Dance with me a number before they cut the tunes
Slow and to the rhythm, we're sailing on the blue

How long has it been now, Lavender Amelie?
Since the day I met you, since the day I set you up in my mind (My mind)
How long've you been now living up there rent-free?
Feelings hard to sever, not that I could ever decide to try (To try)
How long has it been now? (You and me)
Since the day I met you, since the day I set you up in my mind (My mind)

All that I have left is a distant melody
Row me down the river and out into the sea
