My Favorite Plum Lyrics

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
And 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
And 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 And 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
