Just Like Lemon Pie On a Sunday Drive

When then sun sets east on a western shore
as the clouds laugh in the sky 
I will call your name as I close door
taking time to wonder why

In the second chance that I come to find
when the moon sings on the sea
I will thank the stars that I left behind
standing right in front of me 

Walking to the place that we call our own
with a daisy in my hand
Hoping that this bloom will correct the tone
that you'll somehow understand 

And I feel the breeze of a twilight dream
as the trees begin to pray
Falling to their knees down along the stream
in a soft believing way

Then as nature calls in a whispered voice
so that only you can hear
I contend that I having not a choice 
now decide to make it clear 

For you are the one I've been looking for
with my eyes now opened wide
To seed the flow we have found before 
like the calming evening tide

Just like lemon pie on a Sunday drive
sweet as anything we know 
When the choir sings as the crowds arrive 
hoping that the truth will show  

That you are my one, truly only need
for time has stood it's due
Just takes these words I have penned to read 
I am so in love with you

Aww this is so sweet, and such perfect imagery with the trees falling to their knees. That's really what they look like sometimes too! This had a dreamy, romantic feel to it. As I read I thought of the beautiful artwork by one of my favorite artists:Maxfield Parrish.

You write the sweetest love songs, Chris. (But I have to admit that I am puzzled about the sun setting east...)
