lyrics

VERSE 1

I HOPE YOU DON’T MIND
I WALKED AN HOUR, PHOTOGRAPHED A FLOWER FOR YOU
AND THE REASON I WRITE
IS WHEN I WOKE UP TODAY
WITH BIRDS ON MY WINDOWSILL, SINGING
AND I THOUGHT IT PROBABLY WILL MAKE YOU HAPPY
IF I SEND IT YOUR WAY

ALONE AND CONFINED, YET YOU LOOK SO REFINED
WITH A SMILE THAT’S SWEET AS THE SPRING AIR I BREATHE
IT’S SUCH A PITY, THAT YOU’RE IN THE CITY
AND I’M FAR AWAY, IN THE BACK OF BEYOND

BRIDGE

WE KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO BE LONELY AND KILLING TIME
LOCKED DOWN AND STUCK IN YOUR ROOM
BUT WHEN THIS IS PASSED, WE’LL LIE IN THE GRASS
PLAYING OUR SONGS BY THE LIGHT OF THE MOON

VERSE 2

I HOPE YOU FIND TIME
WHEN YOU WALK AN HOUR
PHOTOGRAPH A FLOWER FOR ME
AND THE EVENING COMES
YOU’LL SEND IT MY WAY

BRIDGE 2

YES, SHE WOVE A THREAD
WHEN THE PUBS WERE ALL DEAD
AND SOMETHING SHE SAID
GOT STUCK IN MY HEAD
ABOUT TULIPS AND VODKA

VERSE 3

AND I HOPE YOU DON’T MIND
I WALKED AN HOUR, PHOTOGRAPHED A FLOWER FOR YOU
BECAUSE YOU WERE ON MY MIND
WHEN I WOKE UP TODAY
AND THE REASON I WRITE, I JUST WANTED TO SAY
I HOPE YOU’RE DOING FINE
AND THANKS FOR THE LAUGHS AND THE PHOTOGRAPHS
AND HERE’S TO THE DAY!
