The Blooming Game

THE BLOOMING GAME
The morning shines, the vines reach for the sky
They twine together, yours and mine
Their melodies combine
In such a fine design
chorus
And if you go, I'll know we're not to blame
'Cause nothing stays the same for long
In the blooming game
The sun beats down, the morning glories start to close
That blue, translucent petal blue
Just disappears from view
Like we both knew it would do
chorus
The autumn comes, the heart-shaped leaves turn brown
The seeds are scattered on the ground
There's really nothing lost
And so much to be found
chorus (twice)
