Golden Apples - Jonathan Wilson

A midnight moon, morning dew

An orchid from Atlantis in a bottle for you

Tears from Aphrodite, rainbows at high noon

Golden apples, I have one for you

Ambrosia too, honeydew

The lute of Apollo, I’ll play it for you

You’re Venus De Milo, what do I got to lose?

It’s out in the open but it’s only for you

If I could change the law of time

Well I’d turn it all back and love you

For longer in my life

Well I’d trade it all in to meet you

Yeah to have known you

All those years too

Athena’s needle, Athena’s seagull

Descending to your window’s pane

To bring you drops of heaven’s rain

Wine from Dionysus, darts from Eros too

Golden apples, I saved one for you

If I could change the law of time

Well I’d turn it all back to love you

For longer in my life

Well I’d trade it all in to meet you

To have known you

All those years too

So you will find me on the ocean

With the trident of Poseidon

Charting the magnitude

As you and I, we rendezvous

You’re Venus de Milo

What do I got to lose?

It’s out in the open

But it’s only for you
