Cherry Stem

There she goes showing off again

Tying a bow with a cherry stem

Caught in between

Her teeth and her tongue

She says there's a song in everyone

What was it you said that made her blush?

Her cheeks turned red as licorice

Or was it the wine?

Help sleep through the night

She says there's a song in all of us

With her head upon my pillow

Drift in the evening sun

Once when I was growing up

I buried my head in a watermelon

I swallowed the seeds

Until they were gone

She says there's song in everyone
