branches speak their secrets slowly down,
from the canopy the mystery dissolves,
but leaves don't forget the rain,
when it's the first they've ever tasted,
here with me melanie wonderful,
to face the sun with disregard, for it's shining is forever,
here with me melanie wonderful.
the cadence blazing purple in our eyes,
watch the forest take the ocean by surprise.
though the valley's mate still aches with vacancy,
and the city has claimed a daughter of the sea.
now the salt’s upon my roots,
her waves wrapped around my fingers,
here with me melanie wonderful.
erase the last two lines, as we descend into the shallows,
here with me melanie wonderful.
