Daisies

Boy in a tie

Cause momma just died

They lower her down

And he closes his eyes

Guess it was a lie

That daddies don't cry

Cause his hides the hurt with

Some whiskey and rye

Girl in a dress

Frills at the hem

Spends every night

Running free with the wind

Sweet as old rum

Heart filled with love

Light spreads from her tips

Like she drank up the sun

Bar in the city and

Girl comes to sing

Boy brings his sorrow

To drown it in drink

The butterflies dance

As his head turns her way

She fills up the room

Like a songbird in May

Now she's sitting there asking him why

Do I see sadness inside of those eyes?

It's love that I loathe

A song I don't know

I'll be alone till the daisies don't grow

This is my home

Boy running late

Heartbeat ablaze

Ring in his coat

Practicing what he'll say

Girl at her bed

Nails painted red

Praying it'd be

like she dreamed as a kid

Field in the valley

Where the strawberries bloom

A cricket song plays

While they're chasing the moon

They run and they dance

And they roll on the ground

The words start to flow

Like the rain from the clouds

He takes her hand into his own

And says to her

Baby I'm finally whole

It's your love I know

A song to dance slow

I'm all of yours till the daisies don't grow

You are my home

You're my

White picket fence with the

Porch light

A rug at entrance to

Our life

Eternity passes us by

You're my

Kids in the kitchen

My goodbye

Kiss every morning

Oh my

Heaven is holding me close

Love sing to me slow

It's my time to go

Darlin be strong till the daisy's don't grow

Then meet me back home
