Picking Oranges - Leddra Chapman

Walk through rain with me

Soak the sun with me

Lose control

Let go

Catch the snow with me

Feel the cold underneath your feet

'Cos I know

You’ll hold me

Next time you pass me by

Write a song with me

Play guitar for me

Help me sing the right notes

Paint a sky for me

Draw the line with me

When I go

You’ll try to stop me

Next time you pass me by

Trying too hard to find a quick fix solution

I close my eyes and tell you tonight

Fly with me

Lift me up to my feet

Set me free from this skin I’ve been too long in

Will you fly with me

Drive me somewhere

Where we can be something

Have something more than a dream

I thought up in my sleep

Next time you pass me by

Picking oranges

In New Zealand

Grow pear trees on our front lawn

Making clay pots

Just like that film we watched

Is it real?

I don’t know

Don’t believe I can’t see everday waste away

In front of me

Hoping for more

Fly with me

Lift me up to my feet

Set me free from this skin I’ve been too long in

Will you fly with me

Drive me somewhere

Where we can be something

Have something more than a dream

I thought up in my sleep

Next time you pass me by

Myself I could do anything

I’d rather share it with you

I won’t hide

I’ll swallow my pride tonight

I’ll decide to tell you to;

Fly with me

Lift me up to my feet

Set me free from this skin I’ve been too long in

Will you fly with me

Drive me somewhere

Where we can be something

Have something more than a dream

Will you fly with me

Lift me up to my feet

Set me free from this skin I’ve been too long in

Will you fly with me

Drive me somewhere

Where we can be something

Have something more than a dream

I thought up in my sleep

Next time you pass me by
