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 the story told by flora
Dreams they never knew

Silver willows, tears from Persia
Those [bad word] 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
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 [bad word] 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 [bad word] Dreams they never knew
And the sky above is blue
