The lentil (Lens culinaris) is an edible pulse. It is a bushy annual plant of the legume family, known for its lens-shaped seeds. It is about 40 cm (16 in) tall, and the seeds grow in pods, usually with two seeds in each.
Lentils have been part of the human diet since aceramic Neolithic times, being one of the first crops domesticated in the Near East. Archeological evidence shows they were eaten 9,500 to 13,000 years ago.
Lentil colors range from yellow to red-orange to green, brown and black. Lentils also vary in size, and are sold in many forms, with or without the skins, whole or split.
Well you were waiting for me, you saw me, adored me
As I wish the whole world would
You would never hurt me, desert me or work me
For all the things you thought you could
Yeah you would lick the tears from my eyes when I cried
Oh how I missed you when I was gone
Hurt me so to leave you, deceive you, I needed you, I believed in you
Oh I, I never meant to let you down
I?ll wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I?m trying not to fall apart
Now all I have is riches and pictures and stitches
Money could never buy what you gave
And though my heart is aching and breaking I?m making
The most of what you send my way
Now I want just to hold you, unfold you, I told you
See I am coming back for you
Yeah I know we will be ok every day
The sun shines a little brighter
Oh I, I never meant to let you down
I?ll wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I?m trying not to fall apart
I never meant to let you down
I wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I?m trying not to fall apart
Yeah, I?m trying not to fall apart
We?ll reunite, oh we?ll set alight
I?m wishing with all of my might
Oh no, I never meant to let you down
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
I never meant to put you down
I'm tryin' not to fall apart
I never meant to let you down
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
I never meant to put you down
