Sugarcane Songtext
von Tom Baxter

What was said to the rose
That made it open
With cedar in my chest
Unfettered and unspoken
Something entered me subtly
A freshness bruised my lips
I was spellbound by the sanctity
In that moment as we kissed

So it is what it is
The six strings sing
There′s a pomegranate blush
In your sun-kissed skin
It is what it is

You're whatever made sugarcane sweet
Now there′s no need for maps
You could sail me out to sea
And if you cut me from this riverbed
I'll be your reed flute as you breathe


A new dawn you've awoken me
Just like a birdsong in my tower
Our inner secrets newly born
Like a blooming jasmine flower

Oh so it is what it is
The six strings sing
There′s a pomegranate blush
In your sun-kissed skin
Oh it is what it is
You′re whatever made sugarcane

Whatever put the eloquence in truth
Whatever made the sun set
Whatever put the drunkenness in wine
Is all I've ever needed
Whatever put this melody in me
Is all it′s ever meant to be
Whatever made you beautiful
Is whatever made sugarcane sweet


Oh whatever put the eloquence in truth
Whatever made the sun set
Whatever put the drunkenness in wine
Is all I've ever needed
Whatever put this melody in me
Is all it′s ever meant to be
Whatever made you beautiful
Is whatever made sugarcane sweet
Whatever made you beautiful
Is whatever made sugarcane sweet
