Pea from Pea by Matthew McLaughlin

Forlorning Pea, you’ve been lost a long time
A troublesome seed in your own right
But you curled up snuggled in bed
While the memory of us went straight to your head

I know I know what you’re coming around to find
You’ve seen love grow in a planter inside your mind
You can’t be waiting for a day that just won’t come
You can’t be waiting for a love that stands waiting; waiting for someone

You won’t find much life inside of your little pod
Life’s dressed to the nines and out on the promenade
Talk to Pearl she knows your story well
She bought a Fender guitar, now she’s out raising hell
But her songs would mean nothing if she never left her shell
And her tunes won’t fade away
Let the memory of us grow darker each day

I know I know what you’re coming around to find
You’ve seen love grow in a planter inside your mind
You can’t be waiting for a day that just won’t come
You can’t be waiting for a love that stands waiting; waiting for someone
