Lavender Road

Where does the time go?

Down Lavender Road

Turn left at the post

Where memories grow

Like weeds in summer snow

And firefly galaxies glow

Here we go

Pulling up the curtains on the magic show

Heroes and ghosts sit in the front row

Curious ballerina bones and tight rope vertigo

Opera glasses like telescopes

Where does young love go?

Down Lavender Road

Pebbles and planets know

How there is no hope when

That red wind blows and

All our words go up in smoke

And silence echoes

Down Lavender Road

Where wine and teardrops flow

And rows of graveyards grow like

White Rabbit holes and

Where they stop nobody knows

Curiosity killed the cat

Vanity killed the man
