Millie Jackson lyrics : "Leftovers"

One, two, three, four

Underneath the lilac tree

I close my eyes and suddenly
I'm ten years old and running through
An open field, chasing after you


Sounds of summer fill my ears
If i live 10,000 years

I'll never feel as good as this
Moments before our first kiss


There is nothing to demand
No algebra to understand
Just sunlight on a freckled face

And everything in its right place

Simple things turn magical

Minutes freeze like popsicles
And drip their seconds down our shirts
I love you so much it hurts


There's no such thing as real time
I've been yours and you've been mine

And we've lived ever happily
Everywhere i've been you've been with me


There is nothing to control
No question mark left on our souls
Just sunlight on a freckled face


There is nothing to demand
No politics to understand

Just sunlight on a freckled face
Everything in its right place
Everything in its right place


And i want to give you a brand new sky
Something so open, it brings tears to your eyes

So clear and so present, it doesn't seem real
I want to show you how you make me feel


I want to give you a brand new dream
Where two horses drink from a silver stream
As the trees catch fire they lift their heads

And bolt together through the forest across our beds

I want to bring you the fields of flowers

I want to build you eiffel towers
Take the clouds in the evening, turn 'em into stars
And drop 'em like keys through your prison bars

Set you free, yeah
