Flowers in the Morning

I will bring you flowers in the morning
wild roses as the sun begins to shine
sweet perfume and tiny jeweled caskets
if I thought you’d ever change your mind

I will take you where the music’s sweetest
and feed you winter fruits and summer wine
I’ll show you things you’d only see in story books
if I thought you’d ever change your mind

I will bring you happiness
wrapped up in a box, and tied with a yellow bow
I will bring you rainbow skies, and summer rain
to make you garden grow
and in the winter snow
my songs will keep you from the cold

but what use of flowers in the morning
when the garden they should grow in is not mine
and what use of sunshine when you’re crying
and my falling tears are mingled with the wine

I will bring you happiness…

I will bring you flowers in the morning
wild roses as the sun begins to shine
winter fruits and summer wine
sweet perfume and columbine
if I thought you’d ever change your mind
if I thought you’d ever change your mind.
