Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lie awake, she's gone, I'm in the spring of my madness
As the days grow long, I'm getting colder
And they rise as one, flowers in mourning
They all come into bloom
[Instrumental]
Everywhere I look, I see the colours of sadness
And I wish I could see through the summer
And the fall of our love, flowers in mourning
They all come into bloom
[Chorus]
If I survive it, another season I grow
I'm still arising, it's all highs and lows
My heart is lying where the seeds are blown
Flowers in mourning, blooming out of a forest fire
[Instrumental]
If I survive it, another season I grow
I'm still arising, it's all highs and lows
My heart is lying where the seeds are blown
Flowers in mourning, blooming out of a forest fire
[Bridge]
Lie awake, she's gone (Oh, she's gone)
As the days grow long (Grow so long)
Lie awake, she's gone (Oh, gone, gone)
As the days grow long
Lie awake, she's gone (Lie awake, lie awake)
As the days grow long (Long)
Lie awake, she's gone (Lie awake, lie awake)
As the days grow long (As the days grow, as the days grow)
Lie awake, she's gone (She's gone)
As the days grow long (Lie awake, lie awake)
Lie awake, she's gone (She's gone)
As the days grow long (Lie awake, lie awake)
[Outro]
And they rise as one, flowers in the mourning
They all come into bloom
And, uh, yeah
She just basically made it up to make fun of him
And in the end, she just started singing it with her grandchildren
So the only thing that she would change was the name at the beginning
Um, and so me and all my cousins my age and younger
Our brother, sister, stuff, like
Basically, the entire family knows the song
