"Kiss Me" ...... so what the heck is "bearded barley"?

[SideshowBob]

SSB has always liked this song, and finally pulled up lyrics...

What the HECK is "Bearded Barley"? Not certain that SSB would want to be kissed out of that... haha!



Artist: Sixpence None The Richer Lyrics
Song: Kiss Me Lyrics


Kiss me out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.

[Chorus:]
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me

Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map

Bearded Barley

 

[LindsayDunn228]

The whole freaking song makes no sense.

 

[Sparx]

silver moon sparkling... I made that.
Isn't beared barley like a cat tail?
