Lavender Love

There was two hearts that were meant to touch
because of the fact that they loved so much.
He saw in her eyes,
deep lavender skies
and loving hand he could forever clutch.

On virgin sands they sauntered alone
lushed in lavender love of their own.
This must be true love,
from heaven above
she used up all her eau de cologne.
