Flora's Secret

Lovers in the long grass look above them
Only they can see where the clouds are going
Only to discover - dust and sunlight 
Ever make the sky so blue

Afternoon is hazy, river flowing
All around the sounds moving closer to them
Telling them a story told by flora
Dreams they never knew

Silver willows, tears from Persia
Those who come from a far-off island
Winter chanterelle lies under cover,
Glory-of-the-sun in blue

Some they know as passion, some as freedom,
Some they know as love and the way it leaves them,
Summer snowflake for a season
When the sky above is blue

Lying in the long grass close beside her
Giving her the name of the one the moon loves,
This will be the day she will remember
When she knew his heart was
Loving in the long grass close beside her,
Whispering of love and the way it leaves them,
Lying in the long grass in the sunlight
They believe it's true love

And from all around them flora's secret
Telling them of love and the way it breathes and
Looking up from eyes of amaranthine
They can see the sky is blue,
Knowing that their love is true,
Dreams they never knew,
And the sky above is blue
