Petrichor

It hasn't rained in six months or more

Till today, a sudden pour

Now, I can smell the petrichor outside

The sighin' ground gives up its love

Unto the breeze and the trees above

Suddenly, our phantom shoves my side

I don't need you

I don't need you

I don't need you

But I sure want you

I never loved you more than wind

But I turned and walked into the wind

I left you leanin' on no friend of mine

I walked straight, didn't turn my head

The hardest thing I ever did

Sea birds wheelin' overhead and cryin'

I don't need you

I don't need you

I don't need you

But I sure want you

I wish I knew the names of things

Trees and flowers, birds that sing

You're much better at that kind of things than I

And I don't know these stars up here

You'd fill me in if you were near

You taught me petrichor, my secret side

I don't need you

I don't need you

I don't need you

But I sure want you

I sure want you

I want you

Yes, I want you
