"The Flowers" lyrics

"The Flowers"

Where did you come from, Honey?
Your hand on my back
It's gentle as can be

And when you hold my hand
You hold my heart
And when you kiss my lips
You're kissing my soul!

I wanna know you honey
Your steady eyes
They're telling me to trust this

There's a quiet strength
Inside your tenderness
And I wanna be in it

And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her...
And I might be alone some other time in my life...
But I'm not tonight
But I'm not tonight!

Where did you find me honey?
You really swam your way down to the ocean floor
I swear, I swear, I swear
I thought I'd die there...
But just when I made my peace
The door swung open!

Oh never leave me honey!
But if you do at least I know that I can
Still feel alive
Still feel some happiness...
Oh I can be in it!

And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her...
And I might be alone some other time in my life...
But I'm not tonight
But I'm not tonight!

Where did you come from honey?
Where did you come from honey?

And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her...
And I like the pretty things you said about the flowers
And I loved how long you hugged me when I said I missed her...

And I might be alone some other time in my life...
But I'm not tonight
