Snow Cherries from France [Gold Dust]

[Verse 1]
I knew a boy who would not share his bike
Oh, but he let me go sailing
I swore that I could survive any storm
Oh, then he let me go

[Pre-Chorus 1]
"Can you launch rockets from here?"
Boy, I've done it for years
Right over my head
And when I promised my hand
He promised me back
Snow cherries from France

[Chorus]
All that summer, we travelled the world
Never leaving his own back garden
Girls, I didn't know just what it could be
Oh, but he let me go sailing

[Verse 2]
You question me, "Can you ride anything?"
Lord, do you mean like your mood swings?
Invaders and traders with the best intentions
May convince you to go

[Pre-Chorus 2]
"They look like pirates from here"
Boy, I've been one for years
Just keeping my head
And when I promised my head
He promised me back
Snow cherries from France

[Chorus]
All that summer, we travelled the world
Never leaving his own back garden
Girls, I didn't know just what it could be
Oh, but he let me go sailing

[Outro]
And then one day he said, "Girl it's been nice
Oh, but I have to go sailing"
With cinnamon lips that did not match his eyes
Oh, then he let me go
