"A Flower Is A Lovesome Thing" lyrics

Lucy Woodward Lyrics

"A Flower Is A Lovesome Thing"
(originally by Duke Ellington and His Orchestra)

A flower is a lovesome thing
A luscious living lovesome thing
A daffodil, a rose
No matter where it grows
Is such a little lovesome thing

A flower is the heart of spring
That makes the rolling hillsides sing
The gentle winds that blow
Blow gently for they know
A flower is a lovesome thing

Playing in the breeze
Swaying in the trees
In the silent night
Or in the morning light
Such a miracle

Azaleas drinking pale moonbeams
Gardenias floating through daydreams
Wherever they may go
No matter where it goes
A flower is a lovesome thing

Playing in the breeze
Swaying in the trees
In the silent night
Or in the morning light
Such a miracle

Azaleas drinking pale moonbeams
Gardenias floating through daydreams
Wherever they may go
No matter where it goes
A flower is a lovesome thing
