Tender Violet
Azam Ali
I’ve lost my way
I’m far from home
I’ve taken every road that I know
In search of your love
Don’t tell me I’m near
Don’t call my name
Don’t tell me how close I have been
To feel the hand of your love
Tender violet
Wash over me
Tender violet
Where I long to be
And I fall….
I’ll bed the sky
To tell the stars of my pain
I’ll sing to the stones of my sorrows
Abandon my heart to the wind
Don’t show me your light
Don’t tempt my gaze
Don’t tell me that time demands my silence
That there are things worth living for
Tender violet
Wash over me
Tender violet
Where I long to be
And I fall….
