"Canopies" lyrics

"Canopies"

I loved you
Too much to keep you
All to myself. So I
Committed a crime

A committee of clones said
To treat you as one of a kind
Surely no one would meet you
And think of someone that came to their mind

Of all of the flowers that come to rise
You had the softest eyes
And eyelids outbid
Only by canopies

[?]

Waves, waves fold over
And send her scent to me
From the rugged cliffs of the Mediterranean
To the bars of my balcony

Of all of the stones to leave unturned
On the sea shores of Lebanon
To my kin and my sin
Nears inconsolable tears
