Ingredients of an Old Fashioned by Michael Alexis Joseph III published on 2017-02-23T16:51:42Z She walked the open tracks with flower in her eyes Gaze unbroken by petals there that drifted all around The path she lay through hallowed ground lead directly to my feet As if I'd birthed the beating heart that walked away from me Oh, that walked away from me When there's love around you, well love is what you do When this darkness surrounds you, love is what you do Yes, love is what you do Got so high I almost cried, but patched the dam before it fell Nestled myself amongst sleeping ghosts that I'd learned to hold so well There were times I felt so tall, times I burned in my own hell Still I'm climbing garden walls catching flowers as they fell Oh, catching flowers as they fell When there's love around you, well love is what you do When this darkness surrounds you, love is what you do Yes, love is what you do Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter
