John Fullbright - Forgotten Flowers lyrics

rate me

I've got diamonds in my backyard they grow just like weeds

You'll come and gather them in bundles, take all that you need

But save the flowers they're for me dear, take the diamonds for your greed

Because the flowers don't grow like weeds

Glory, gloryÂ…Hallelujah, I'm lost and she's found

Another lover, to give her shelter when the fields have turned brown

Another kind man, to warm her when the snow finds the ground

The only girl, that made the world go round

There are some thing worth remembering

Others left for time to come and weather, and to change

In the winds of your mind

But don't forget me while your leaving,

Because it's all that I borrowed from time

Now It's Sunday, early evening

I rise for the day and brush a long hair from the pillow

On my bed where she would lay

And in the back yard forgotten flowers all fading away

To bloom in other lover's back yards someday

To bloom in other lover's back yards someday
