My Favorite Plum歌词

作词 : Vega
作曲 : Suzanne Vega
My favorite plum

Hangs so far from me
See how it sleeps
And hear how it calls to me
See how the flesh
Presses the skin
It must be bursting
With secrets within
I've seen the rest yes

And that is the one for me

See how it shines
It will be so sweet
I've been so dry

It would make my heart complete
See how it lays
Languid and slow
Never noticing
Me here below
I've seen the best yes
And that is the one for me

Maybe a girl will take it
Maybe a boy will steal it
Maybe a shake of the bough
Will wake it and make it fall
My favorite plum

Lies in wait for me
I'll be right here
Longing endlessly
You'll say that I'm
Foolish to trust
But it will be mine

And I know that it must
'Cause I've had the rest yes
And that is the one for me

I've seen the best yes

And that is the one for me
