Petal Pie Song - Invictus, Norman Wall, André Wall

Crossing land and sea to a foreign shore

She came to me — stood at my door.

She came unknown, and unannounced,

Not even her name had been pronounced.

It was late evening, or early night,

As she stood at the doorway the night seemed bright.

I do not know, what thoughts I had,

I was not happy, I was not sad.

You and I no longer one

But wherever you may be girl

Wherever you have gone

You will always be with me girl

My Petal Pie

With some reserve I said «hello»

And then half-smiled wellcomingly

It seemed the sun had shone on me

As two bright eyes smiled approvingly

Then we spoke of this, and we spoke of that

While round the clock it, s fingers run

The past was past, the chapter done

And a new and longer had begun

You and I no longer one

But wherever you may be girl

Wherever you have gone

You will always be with me girl

My Petal Pie

But wherever you may be girl

Wherever you have gone

You will always be with me girl

My Petal Pie

Then that chapter, too, it had ceased

And from my life she had been released.

Was it all decided from long ago,

Before I knew her?

I do not know

You can say I am weary, you can say I am sad

For having lost what once I had.

Yet in my heart there glows a light

Of two bright eyes … once shining bright

You and I no longer one

But wherever you may be girl

Wherever you have gone

You will always be with me girl

My Petal Pie

But wherever you may be girl

Wherever you have gone

You will always be with me girl

My Petal Pie
