Name: Indigo
Duration: P00H05M22S
Description: For this one, I imagined the song in the red book was from a shy fellow who passes a maiden he favors each day on the 1918 streets but never has the courage to actually speak to her. This is his song to her. I tried to incorporate some terms that may have been used during that time such as serenade, ferver and fair vained.

about

For this one, I imagined the song in the red book was from a shy fellow who passes a maiden he favors each day on the 1918 streets but never has the courage to actually speak to her. This is his song to her. I tried to incorporate some terms that may have been used during that time such as serenade, ferver and fair vained.

lyrics

Her hands are modest, face tucked low
City streets are lined with similar shadows
Walk the steps of those who came moments before
For each a distinct path a different entry door

Those who fell upon her blue eyes
Those who fell upon her blue eyes
Indigo

She carries orchids, yellow and white
She's followed by archangels and the light
And all the birds, sing her song
An orchestra of robins serenade her along

Those who fell upon her blue eyes
Those who fell upon her blue eyes
Indigo

She's the ferver of my stride
She's a constant breeze that warms the oceanside
If I had the courage, catch her eye
Speak the words, long for her fair vained reply

I will fall upon her blue eyes
I will fall upon her blue eyes
Indigo
