Lazy May

The Essex Green

Your heart perched in a tree 
Kept from all the scene 
Woah, oh my lazy May 

Careful, I'm a cloud 
Lookin' down upon it now 
Woah, oh my lazy May 

When the winter comes 
You're beatin' your own drum 
Woah, oh my lazy May 

Then it's summertime 
You say you're lucky to be mine 
Woah, oh my lazy May 

I, I love you 
I, I love you 
Oooh my lazy May 

I, I love you 
I, I love you 
Oooh my lazy May 

You've never seen a rose 
More guarded than those of 
Oh, oh my lazy May 

But I know what time of day 
Those thorns melt away 
Oh, oh my lazy May 

I, I love you 
I, I love you 
Oooh my lazy May 

I, I love you 
I, I love you 
Oooh my lazy May 

Now the season ends 
You say we're better off as friends 
Oh, oh my lazy May 

Tryin' all you will 
I'll marry you still 
Oh, oh my lazy May
