Текст песни Approaching Lavender (Gordon Lightfoot) с переводом

If you’d like to spend the afternoon approaching lavender

You’ll feel just fine but one thing’s sure

You’ll never be the same

If you’d like to try your hand at understanding lavender

Then you must be very sure

That life is not a game

You might even learn a thing or two approaching lavender

You’ll soon be on a one night tour

Forgetting your own name

You won’t need a reason just to be alone with lavender

For the light so warm and pure

Will draw you like a flame

The colors that surround you there will be the shade of lavender

Shadows dancing everywhere

Like flowers in the rain

You will find your tongue’s on fire while lying next to lavender

With words you never spoke before

And will not speak again

Oh sweet lavender I understand you perfectly

There is no way that I can see

You living by yourself

Oh sweet lavendar I must be with you constantly

Your presence means so much to me

Much more that life itself

Oh sweet lavender as fragrant as the name you bear

Please cast away the clothes you wear

And give your love to me

Oh sweet lavender your smile is like the golden sun

I’d love to see you laugh and run

As naked as the sea

If you’d like to spend the afternoon approaching lavender

Don’t try and get the best of her

She will not share the blame

If you’d like to try your hand at understanding lavender

Then you must be very sure

That life is not a game

There is no shame
