Long For the Flowers

Between this world and the next

I wanna locate a bit of you

Will I feel it

Or gaze in the emptiness

Who'd guess it could be so unfinished

A never ending infernal process

now where is that bliss

That ordinary life I knew was so exquisite



You long for the flowers

I get more from the hours spent

Minutes that are free of dissent

A day without argument



You said you long for the flowers that you remember

A song sang from the shower how I used to bend words

You asked me where did all that go and I have no answers

I admit that I'm giving up hope and wondering if it can survive



One day will we just begin again

One day will we begin again



You said you long for the flowers that you remember

A song sang from the shower how I used to bend words

You asked me where did all that go and I have no answers

I admit that I'm giving up hope and wondering if it can survive



Don't think I take lightly

The wilting we feel

I wish for surviving

But time, but time, it steals like a thief
