I saw you first in silhouette
 Indigo blue on jealous green
 Wavering past the lilac trees
 Under a tinsel sun
 I couldn't hear the words at first
 Love was dying like the afternoon
 Ultramarine the lilac trees
 Under a tinsel sun

 You told me love was fading fast
 Your face was jade on jealous green
 I walked you past the lilac trees
 Enter Cinnamon Gardens

 I saw you last in silhouette
 Indigo blue on jealous green
 Leukemia pale the lilac trees
 Under a tinsel sun

 A bitter taste of ginger tears
 Crimson stings fall white as grief
 You rippled past the lilac trees
 Remember Cinnamon Gardens
