Lavender and Lace

[Intro]
[Verse]
Dust motes dance in gold
Stories left untold
Attic floorboards creak
Words they cannot speak
I find a leather spine
Trace a silver line
[Pre-Chorus]
Pages thin as glass
Watching seasons pass
Silver light descends
Where the journey ends
[Chorus]
Pressed lavender and lace
A memory's soft embrace
Petals turned to gray
Nothing left to say
Grace in every fold
Story never told
[Post-Chorus]
Scent of old perfume
Fills the silent room
Softly, softly now
Take a silent vow
[Verse]
Ink has faded blue
Waiting there for you
Nineteen-twenty-four
Shadows on the floor
Small acts of the heart
Set the world apart
[Chorus]
Pressed lavender and lace
A memory's soft embrace
Petals turned to gray
Nothing left to say
Grace in every fold
Story never told
[Bridge]
Strings begin to swell
Secrets that they tell
The cor anglais sighs
Under velvet skies
Muted keys descend
Where the echoes end
[Verse]
Grandmother’s soft hand
Grains of golden sand
Did he give you this?
One forgotten kiss?
Tucked between the lines
Where the spirit shines
[Chorus]
Pressed lavender and lace
A memory's soft embrace
Petals turned to gray
Nothing left to say
Grace in every fold
Story never told
[Verse]
Tactile, worn, and sweet
Where the eras meet
Paper thin and dry
Like a summer sigh
Breathe the ancient air
Resting softly there
[Post-Chorus]
Scent of old perfume
Fills the silent room
Softly, softly now
Take a silent vow
[Outro]
