Perfumes of Life

Pine sap sticking to all of our clothes A bug hunt starting behind every rock The smell of rosemary Trades time for a piece of dream That wakes the child in me Quilt forts eat every tile on the floor Seagulls scream as we run to the park The smell of cypresses Trades time for a piece of dream That wakes the child in me The kids mind Grew up fast as all have The laughters and smiles Always stood so high One more set of goodbyes Bound in tear-stained eyes The perfumes of life Last forever and will be kept close to our hearts One more set of goodbyes Bound in tear-stained eyes The perfumes of life Last forever
