Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's flowers in my house
And I bought them myself
No surprises in the record collection
You must have thought I was someone else
[Verse 2]
I'm still afraid to get lost
In a city I might explore
But I'm not afraid to have
An eloquent boy at my door
[Verse 3]
At my door
At my door
At my door
[Verse 4]
Oh, you want to be a writer
Fantastic idea
You say you've never seen America
I really think you'll like it there
[Verse 5]
Maybe you should travel with me
Is this the best idea?
Because you've never seen a Redwood
And you've never touched a deer
[Verse 6]
A deer
A deer
A deer
[Verse 7]
A deer
A deer
My dear
[Verse 8]
Are swans deceivin' us all?
Oh, I for one should know
I never felt myself so graceful
And I never swam so slow
[Verse 9]
So slow
So slow
So slow
[Verse 10]
So slow
So slow
So slow
[Verse 11]
So slow
So slow
So slow
