Now the one I wanted you to listen to most is ready.

This is the fun love ballad version (a completely different song, yes, but about the same thing)

Under the Orange Trees



In the recording I actually had to drop the gold bees reference for timing purposes, but I swear I sing it live. ^-^
I so love the conversations we've had about bees, and oranges, and the really bizarrely sweet Attolia/Gen affair, and so this one is literally for Sounis.

That's who I wrote this for:

Dancing under the orange trees
Eat one, two, three
You don't know anything about me,
But I saw you dance under the orange trees

 

When I sneak through your chimneys

And slip through the hallways while you dream

I'm not trying to make you fear me

I'm too captivated by that memory

 

I saw you dance under the orange trees
I'll eat one, two, three
You don't know anything about me
But I saw you dancing under the orange trees...

 

You've heard so much bad about me

And they've told me the horror stories

But let me tell you—they don't know everything

Both of us are more, I want you to see...

 

Now you're across from me

Trying to explain this dichotomy

You've always been a mystery

Poisoning suitors, and so very lonely

 

By yourself, dancing under the orange trees

...sweet Irene

On that throne, looking down at me

...so cold, so lost Irene

Come closer, you can dance with me

...Irene

Lose those heavy earrings with the bees

Should I steal you away?

...back to the orange trees

 

I saw you dance under the orange trees

I'll eat one, two, three

You don't know anything about me

But I saw you dance under the orange trees...
