"Pretty Flowers" lyrics

"Pretty Flowers"

The more I get to know you, the less I know of love
Is it science? Is it art?
Can I learn to give away my heart?

Held a newborn baby
Crying in my arms
Jesus save me, Jesus save me
Jesus save me, and carry him from harm

The trees are changing color
Changing by the hour
Pretty flowers, pretty flowers
Show me how to come into my power
Come into my power
Without being mean

Mean and greedy, mean and greedy
The garden weeds are making it look easy
Little wild roses
Meadow death and clover
They're taking over, taking over
To pull them out you would need a bulldozer

Ringo ate the jimson
And nearly lost her mind
Up all night crying, all night crying
Why, oh, why, oh, did the poison flower, oh?

The more I get to know you, the less I know of love
Is it science? Is it art?
Can I learn to give away my heart?
