Petrichor
(Yoghurt/Chielie)

Neon clouds race by, below me
here where the heat don’t rise
feast of fire and ice, but blow me
don’t know the colour of nice

difference between seamfoam and spindrift
totally lost on me
whatever you think this is, whatever you see
it’s all lapis lazuli to me

But I miss the petrichor
your mind is playing tricks on me

Baby we’re a nobrainer
if largely happenstance
if only you could be here
you could lift me, we could dance

Far from me it be, to tell you
where to move your ass tonight
love somebody, set them free
promise me you’ll set the stars alight

But I miss the petrichor
your mind is playing tricks, I see
Yeah I miss the scent of rain
on you as you spread out before me

Repairman by day
Fixer by day, fixer by night.
Let me take all your troubles away
wherever we go it will all be alright.

They say I’m sinking home the morrow
God knows what will be greeting me
I can’t wait to feel the weight again
kneel upon you, love you land and sea

difference between seamfoam and spindrift
totally lost on me
whatever you think this is, whatever you see
it’s all lapis lazuli to me

But I miss the petrichor
my mind is playing tricks on me
Yeah I miss the scent of rain
on you as you spread out before me

And it’s not always fun
I can feel your fracking pain
Baby, even the December ducks
squawk at freezing rain.

Love me for me
or don’t even bother
that’s what you should say to them
after all, you are their mother

But they prolly won’t see
Hell, they prolly won’t care
It’s always the same
everywhere (4x)

But I will not resign
my name be indignation
for you to flunk out, fine
but you’re a well-past station

“Move them hippies north!”, you cried
and I listened
but up here, from this halfway house
I see victory glisten
