Ben Lee - Ripe lyrics
rate meThe moon sheds light across the end of the bed
You made me wait but now I’m touching your leg
And I remember all the little things that you said
Quesadillas made with cheese and a rock band who were Japanese.
So for once
In my life I saw what I wanted
And took a bite
I picked the fruit from the tree
And it was ripe
Your love got big your jokes got worse each afternoon
Like Bacon at a bah Mitzvah like a lead balloon
And whose to say what really happened in that room each day
I was looking for a bride, you were looking for a groom.
So for once in your life
You saw what you wanted and took a bite
You picked the fruit from the tree and it was ripe.
And all you people are the heroes I’ve known
We’re staring off the edge into the unknown
We *are not there yet* but we cannot go home
So we cry and we sing
Yeah I remember everything
How for once in our lives
We saw what we wanted and took a bite.
We picked the fruit from the tree and it was ripe.
And it was ripe, and it was ripe, and it was ripe.
