Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Violet softly stirring morning time
Then the edge of evening too
Lays a blanket out across the sky
Coverin' everything within her view
[Verse 2]
Violet rays from your way first appear
Makes me wanna see you more
Orange and purple clouds will hold you near
Then you have to leave just like before
[Verse 3]
Catching those waves to come until they're all gone
What's the sun been tryin' to do
I'll stay and talk a while after we're still
Before you turn back into blue
[Verse 4]
Violet, your vibration feels
Like a tux that I once knew
They say that you're the highest light of all
And you get to be a flower too
[Verse 5]
Catching those waves to come until they're all gone
What's the sun been tryin' to do?
I'll stay and talk a while after we're still
Before you turn back into blue
