Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Petals pour from themselves in a synchronized swim They'd been held to the stem as though holding their breath Collectively they agree to exhale and be free Now one after another they tumble silently Oblivious to me The ashes of last night Sigh into a heap Petals pour from themselves in a synchronized swim I am woken in a moment as they break the air Disintegrate integrate with resigned grace Lining up to jump they remind me of tears Sudden and many fall I look to you Your empty chair And then I remember why there's lilac in the air My tears well up and cry for you My tears well up and cry for you My tears well up and cry for you My tears well up and cry for you There's wet in my hair and I never knew My tears well up and cry for you My tears well up and cry for you My tears well up and cry for you My tears My tears My tears My tears My tears These are my tears My tears, my tears My tears
