Jasmine Will Grow

Hold me in your juniper arms
Little darling, why aren't you close?
Taking comfort in a new shoulder
And an evil sight that flies away
It's not a secret that I am gathering strength for what's coming round

And I'm just another human being, with human being problems
And I thought I had asked you to never hide among them
How does it feel to outlive your own heart and soul?

There's no point in hiding a tender cry
Such a lost and marvelous dream
And you can just sing along
Cause wind can take it all away
And dear, it's not a mistake to ignore the awful things that will come

And maybe you could relent to the beauty
Or you could just yield the loosen spots I carry
It's been a crazy year, for a crazy little light
So why don't you haul my heavy heart again tonight?
