Butter Yellow

Baby you wouldn’t know,
How I want to cry so,
Like daylilies, you don’t have to speak to me.

Baby you wouldn’t wanna know,
Now we leave,
You are the summerest of them all,
You are the yellow sundress.

You are a goddess,
And they are all angels who will guard you,
And the man in white cloth, with a fruit knife in hand,
Will never make it, across the drawbridge.

Never in our lifetime.

We will sit in velvet seats,
With our red velvet cupcakes we will watch,
As death and fear plunge into the water,
But they can never come close.

Never in our lifetime,
Butter yellow.

My love, they will never come close,
To our love,
They will never come close.

They will never come close,
Come closer now baby,
My darling,

We’ll sit in velvet seats,
With our red velvet cupcakes we will watch,
As death and fear plunge into the river,
But they can never come close.

They’ll never come close.
