What's that perfume that you wear
ย
It brings me back somewhere
To the anticipation before i kissed someone
It's got a sadness in it
Knowing how it ended
A promise of something so sweet
That never could be
And it smells so good
That sandalwood
The lavender
Lemon ginger
And I guess I still love her
But she's gone forever
And however hard that might feel
At least it was real
If it could hurt like that
Got a miniature shampoo bottle on my shelf
From when we stayed at a hotel
And one whiff of that and I'm back there with her
Coming out of the shower
She's standing bare
Fixing her hair
Says, "Let's go somewhere"
I can smell her sunlotion
From the wind of the jasmine
And the salt from the ocean
And it smells so good
That sandalwood
The vetiver
Pink pepper
And I guess I still love her
But she's gone forever
And however hard that might feel
At least it was real
If it could hurt like that
It smells so good
ย
That sandalwood
The lavender
ย
Lemon ginger
And I guess I still love her
But she's gone forever
And however hard that might feel
At least it was real
If it could hurt like that
