She was as sweet as a flower in full bloom        
She wore her heart on her sleeve
Chrysanthemum's aura filled the room
In fairytales she does believe

Behind those naive eyes
She ignored the world outside
Until he sweet talked her with lies



His blue eyes consumed by desires
As she staired across the flame
Lust in their minds conspirers
Both knew this was a dangerous game

Chorus:
Chrysanthemum trespassed against his skin
Bodies getting warm as they begin
The line between love and, lust is often thin
As Young lovers throw, caution to the wind
He broke her spirit, then her heart
Heartless, he called it his finest work of art

Just bear in mind that I have a sore throat from a cold ....this is for my Berklee College of Music 
Songwriting
by Pat Pattison   .... I tried using Audacity but it would not work... There was no way to adjust the back ground loop's volume!!!WTFurball! (so it wouldn't pick up my vocals.)... This may not sound like it took hours to do but it did.... I used a different free program from www.acidplanet.com  P.S. Thanks Professor Pat   & class.coursera.org
