about

“Marigolds” exuberates temptation that lures in the eager heart as it dances with desire. It encapsulates the merriment of having a crush that won’t quit, the law of attraction pulling two souls closer together. Yet, despite the magnetizing energy, another relationship sits in the way of these two forces becoming one. Cheerful, bolstering rhythms swoon throughout, pattering with momentum to fight the urge to give into desire. Hand-claps and bouncing guitar animate each chorus as jazzy drum beats restfully simmer in the background. Each light tap of the snare dances with Lunche’s silky vocals in a flattering groove. “Marigolds” stews with intrigue as the heart teeters back and forth between right and wrong.

lyrics

Marigolds

Here she comes again in her new forty five
The lovely bride to be but she’s alone this time
She tells me get inside and takes me for a ride
To tell me everything

She reminds me of a love I lost so long ago
The way her smile is delicately taking hold
And I don’t look in her eyes I’m scared they’ll get me high
Forbidden by design

Her hair like marigolds
That I can’t touch it’s unforgivable
Reminds me of a love I had when I was young
And her marigolds and her marigolds

Now it’s 1AM and we’re still wasting time
I’ve learned why she’s loved so much by her other guy
And she’s speaking with her eyes
Does she want to come inside?
I wouldn’t dare to know his bride

Chorus repeated

She comes around and gets stuck in my mind
Acting like she’s got no man and we could do this just fine
Two wrongs will never make this right
And this can’t happen baby not tonight

Marigolds the kind that only blooms in April’s Arms

Her hair like Marigolds that I can’t touch it’s unforgivable
The kind that makes you feel like you’re in love
With her marigolds and her sweet sweet marigolds
