San Francisco Lyrics by Gemma Laurence

Lavender

2022

[Verse 1]
I'd drive to San Francisco, pick you a Santa Lucian rose
Down in the redwood valley where the nightshade grows
Lay me down in the dogwood, whisper my name like you used to do
And I'd say you haven't changed much since I last saw you
[Chorus]
Oh I know we're getting old, getting old for these games
Buying time in the backseat of your Chevrolet
Singing 'San Francisco, you'll be seeing me soon'
[Verse 2]
Read me your favorite poem, something you think that I might like
Adrienne, I adore you – would you let mе stay the night?
And I'd kiss your hair in the morning, you'd say I don't have to go
And you'd look so nicе in your t-shirt making coffee on the stove
[Chorus]
I know we're getting old, we're getting old for these games
Buying time in the half-light of our salad days
Singing 'San Francisco, you'll be seeing me soon'
[Bridge]
Our loose limbs move like morning mist
Rolling through across the bay
Your eyes meet mine so slowly as we wake
