lyrics

Tell the morning sun it’s too early to wake
I’ll take my tea in the afternoon
Tell my heart it’s too strong to break
I’ll lie in the bath until I’m through

I start to see love everywhere I turn
In the solace of my life
I count the flowers in the garden
Once again
Then I kiss the springtime
Goodbye


Slip on a dress with nowhere to go
Then I dance in circles round my room

I start to feel love in every way I move
In the solace of my life
Count the daffodils upon the hill in bloom
Then I kiss the springtime
Goodbye
Goodbye

All the birds are singing out
With the hopes of starting anew
I just lie in the grass dreaming
Of the day I can see you

I wave to the postman
as he is driving on by
I put your letter in the mail
Paint a picture
Rearrange the kitchen drawers
I think I’ll learn how to sail

I play guitar until my fingers start to burn
In the solace of this life
I count the flowers in the garden once again
Then I kiss the springtime goodbye
