The Florist by Erick Baker Lyrics

The florist has no garden of roses
No springtime smiles from newborn daffodils
No orchids in the window reaching for the sun
The florist couldn’t save a single one
The florist comes from work each evening
To her empty house holding an empty vase
She fills it full of water and then she starts to cry out
Why do flowers have to die
So I gave a flower to the florist today
Cause she always has to give her flowers away
She dreams of dandelion jewelry
Why’s it so hard for something that she wants to grow
Tulip is the name of her tired tabby cat
Pawing at the goldfish bowl
So I gave a flower to the florist today
Cause all she always has to give her flowers away
Forgotten garden
Run dry of water
There is still a chance to save this one
