LAVENDER OIL
lyrics and music by Anna Tutor

A little white dress and purple mittens
Were found in a closet while cleaning the room
Inconsequential items from the past
And everyone said to move on

In her mind, is a bathtub filled with rose petals and lavender oil
In her mind, is a bathtub filled with rose petals and lavender oil

A little white dress and purple mittens
Lay out on a bed in the middle of the day
A tear in its hem, mended and hidden
Cause everyone knows to move on

While she dreams, of a bathtub filled with rose petals and lavender oil
She dreams, of a bathtub filled with rose petals and lavender oil

A little white dress and purple mittens
Stayed clutched in her hands for an hour or four
Inconsequential items from her past
And everyone knows, it’s hard to move on

Fragile stitching
a collar of lace
Unraveling the knitting
that holds her in place
Fragile stitching
a collar of lace
Unraveling the knitting
unraveling

A little white dress and purple mittens
Were placed in an alley next to the trash can
Wrapped in soft linen, and tied with a bow
And no one could say, just when they arrived

Now she lies, in a bathtub filled with rose petals and lavender oil
She lies, in a bathtub filled with rose petals and lavender oil
She lies, in a bathtub filled with rose petals and lavender oil
