Lafayette

Lafayette once ran on a beach
 
Alone with the waves she humbled the ocean
 
With colours of good times she couldn't remember

Crowding her head where they sleep on the stairs

Burying the pain in fiestas and prayers

She knows she can give, she knows she can give,

She knows she can give right here,

She knows she’s to  give, she knows she’s to give,

She knows she’s to give right here, 

Lafayette, pirouettes through the sand she left all the cases for others to take

The november trees just let it all through

The ocean could take her and she wouldn’t care

She could start again but she just doesn’t dare 

nowhere she knows is distant enough

She’s pressing the leaves for the last of the love

 
She knows she can live, she knows she can live,

She knows she can live right here,

She knows she’s to live, she knows she’s to live,

She knows she’s to live right here,


Lafayette trusts in the world

She trusts in the world but in nothing it tells her

She looks at the bay and asks who will believe me

My nightmare my friends is what we all share

For all your accomplishments, graces and airs

And it doesn't matter what anyone says

And it doesn't matter what anyone says


Lafayette, lafayette, Lafayette can fly

Lafayette, lafayette, Lafayette can fly
