Your Brown Jar of Honey
Your Brown Jar of Honey
I knew and you knew that if I listen to Unchained Melody
I would have given up on yesterday
Without the praises, the disappointments
Those long, long sighs
During moments of passion
Our Love was superficial in comparison, until
I saw his face in my dreams
Suddenly, the sweet Gheorghe Zamfir
Unchained Melody spoke to me, I became
The Greek Goddess you never heard of
I am free.
My last sigh, our last embrace
Has curled into dust bunnies
With only one reminder
Your brown Jar of honey, untouched
Sticky and outdated like
Your attempt to seduce me
Those negligees you once loved
The color fades like yesterday tears
Everything in this world that we once shared
Seems so unreal, I am free, free to love
With each breath, with each melody, the intimidation
We were everything, I welcome those nights
However, I am now the Brave heart of my soul
My fear has subsided, my smiles long overdue
A new secret reveals. Close all doors
