Flowers Lyrics

Middle of California kind of summer day

The park is empty, plenty of space on the grass

She and I —making daisy chains

Crowned ourselves, put em in our hair

Press the flowers between paper

Wanted to keep em there forever

We can't go back to where we were

But I'd take one day more.

One day more.

She met a guy, wanted to marry young

Asked me to stand by her side on the day

I held the roses when church bells rung

Didn't tell her I didn't think he was the one

Press the flowers between paper

Wanted to keep em there forever

We can't go back to where we were

But I'd take one day more.

One day more.

Oooh … ooh

one day more

It'd been years since I spoke to her

When I brought marigolds to her grave

She'd had some troubles I'd never heard

But then again was I even listening?

Press the flowers between paper

Wanted to keep em there forever

We can't go back to where we were

But I'd take one day more.

One day more.
