Linen and Clover

[Intro]
[Verse]
Parked by the white fence
Making some kind of sense
Brushing crumbs off the sheet
In the late spring heat
Linen faded and blue
Thinking mostly of you
[Pre-Chorus]
I shake the fabric clean
The softest shade of green
I find a crumpled card
From a forgotten yard
[Chorus]
We were wild in the brambles
Lost in the scrambles
Stained purple to the bone
Never felt alone
Now the lemonade is sweet
In this hazy midday heat
[Verse]
Picking berries in the wild
When I was just a child
Thorns against our skin
Letting the summer in
Old sadness feels so small
Like it wasn't there at all
[Chorus]
We were wild in the brambles
Lost in the scrambles
Stained purple to the bone
Never felt alone
Now the lemonade is sweet
In this hazy midday heat
[Bridge]
The fiddle plays a distant tune
Under the afternoon
I’m finally at peace
Finding my release
I’ve outgrown the heavy rain
I’ve outgrown the old-time pain
[Verse]
Hazy light on the hill
Everything is standing still
I think I see you there
Flowers in your hair
But it’s just the clover blowing
And the way the day is going
[Chorus]
We were wild in the brambles
Lost in the scrambles
Stained purple to the bone
Never felt alone
Now the lemonade is sweet
In this hazy midday heat
[Post-Chorus]
Just a half-shared glass
Watching seasons pass
Brushing crumbs away
On this quiet day
[Outro]
