Hyacinth

[intro]
“Hyacinth, oh Hyancinth.”
The sun, he beckons me
“Hyacinth, oh hyacinth.”
Your golden voice beats down on me

[verse]
I think I’ve cast a spell on you
Bewitched you are by me
A creature of divinity
How can you be
Smitten with me?

You play me hymns upon your lyre
Of endless passions, love, desire
I’ll be forever bathed in sun
Until you find another one
To love

[Chorus]
You paint me in your golden light
Sing to me eternal rhymes
Of how I’ll dance across the sky
Perfеctly crafted lullabies
We can sit and lay awhilе
Sipping nectar from up high
While the hours pass us by
Make a promise that is bound to die
“Hyacinth, my Hyacinth, Hyacinth, my Hyacinth, I’ll never say goodbye”

[verse]
Another heart that I did win
Called Zephyrus, “the western wind”
And anytime that you’re away
I feel the chill and it begins

He wraps me in his soaring wings
Maligns your past inconstant trysts
He begs me to commit to him
“Renounce the sun, embrace the wind.”
I almost did
I almost did

[Chorus]
But then you paint me in your golden light
Sing to me eternal rhymes
Of how I’ll dance across the sky
Perfectly crafted lullabies
We can sit and lay awhile
Sipping nectar from up high
While hours pass us by
Make a promise that is bound to die
“Hyacinth, my hyacinth, hyacinth, my hyacinth, I’ll never say goodbye”

[bridge]
Winds chill quickly
His gales they steal my breath from me
And you weren’t with me
When it hit me
Struck me down
Bleeding out
I fell to the ground
The clouds did split
And there you knelt
And the roaring wind
He fell silent

[Chorus]
As you paint me in your golden light
Sing to me eternal rhymes
Of how I’ll dance across the sky
One last lullaby
Turned my body into dust
And from that dust a flower grew
Forever new
Forever true to you

[outro]
“Hyacinth, my hyacinth”
(Forever true forever new)
“Hyacinth, my hyacinth”
(Forever true forever new)
“Hyacinth, my hyacinth”
(Forever true forever new)
“Hyacinth, my hyacinth”
(Forever true forever new)
