Flowers Lyrics

Flowers stand in a garden when the day is young

Watering once a day, leaving out to dry in the sun

Growing stronger and taller with every passing month

Bringing beauty and giving smiles to everyone

In the spring everything's just right for buds and bloom

She comes over and lays in the grass all afternoon

Runs her fingertips over the petals and the leaves

Through my garden of flowers growing endlessly

But winter came

And snow fell down

And what was once a field of flowers

Became a patch of empty ground

Tried my best to fertilize but the blade's already been drawn

Cut the stems, pull the weeds, sprinkle gravel over the lawn

No more petals, she's found another garden to lay

Should've stopped to smell the flowers..

They've all gone away
