In the afternoon of orange blossom days
Hummingbirds rest above where we lay
You say its ok, no need to fret
The weight of it all will ease as we find
The balance in each step we make
Swinging back n forth in a palo verde tree
The wind in the needles hushes you asleep
Even with the strain, your heart remains
Dont doubt why darlin
In time you will find were alright we were born
Like the branch to bend and not to break
Reconcile and resurrect, tombstone rose
Growing up and over the gates to where our children play
The future wraps round like vines
Inside these arms
Darlin will you say in our final embrace
Before returning neath the clay
After all that your heart still remains
