Lyrics

[Intro]
It all started one summer night in London
Just a kiss
[Verse 1]
Couple years back
It was crazy
It was with a beautiful female
All I remember is
[Chorus]
Lovely sweetness that filled the air
Came from a daffodil in your hair
I placed it there (I placed it there)
Lovely sweetness that filled the air
Came from a daffodil in your hair
I placed it–
[Verse 2]
My heart blossomed with a look
Deep into each other's eyes
Something was brewing and I was ready to fly
I never thought about it twice
[Verse 3]
I said
"Let's go dance"
I was ready, I was, I was ready to fly
[Chorus]
Lovely sweetness that filled the air
Came from a daffodil in your hair
I placed it there
[Verse 4]
The next thing I knew, we–
We were in the dance floor
Floating in clouds of ecstasy
Everyone feeling so good
So good
Sweat is rolling (Just us two)
Into the morning (Under sky so blue)
[Chorus]
And the lovely sweetness that filled the air
Till the sun comes up
Came from a daffodil in my hair
Till the sun goes down
You placed it there
Summer London Town
[Verse 5]
Drinks on me
Literally
Feel like a mess
Feels like a dream
Lost in the beat
Lost in the wave
Step to the streets
Two-step 'fore we leave
Plant a kiss on me
Stuck in trance
Days in the park 'fore I went to the dance
Primrose Hill
Pretty Daffodils
Pretty Daffodils
Pretty Daffodils
[Verse 6]
Lost
Just thinking of someone
Think they met
At a party
There's someone for everyone
Sometimes it feels could be anyone
So place it there
[Verse 7]
I'll never forget that night
Too sweet to let go
A flower to the nose
[Outro]
And I woke up the next day and I said
"Yo, I know what the answer to life is"
And I said
"It's to love each other"
He was like
"Word"
