Circle

1st verse:

And love is but a petal falling to the ground
though it wilts when not on the vine
it's roots are safe and sound
it's true that if nature had the time
it could tear that all apart
but I guarantee you that's not me
if I hear you call as will an arrow I will dart
and the righteous you will be

2nd verse:

It may seem we're in a dry spell
but it's drenched with the morning dew
it may feel as does an empty well
but baby that's not true
hold me through the labor
as a baby seeing the flicker
of it's first glimpse of a layer
of time coming quicker

Chorus:

Let it bloom in the moonlight
let it blow through the storm
leave it all behind with insight
restrain me only warm
soft pillows of moonlight
may it show sweet and warm
sunshine on me bright
with kisses I adorn
and hope will settle us in the sound
though it tilts there's still a sign
it suits us perfectly round
for you I'll draw the line

There is so much imagery in this verse. The part of the vine is what I like best. But the rest is great too.
