Every Flower Dies (Patreon)

Sometimes I write songs...especially if I'm feeling sad about people I will never see again.

Every Flower Dies

Last night
I saw the moonlight sparkle in your eyes
And my heart finally came to realize
I’ve always known the truth behind the lies
Love is just a bloom that flowers then it dies.

Spring’s hope is in a bees buzzing song
Summer suns help guide love along
Harvest colors should make us wise
That winter comes when every flower dies.

Some day I know you will remember me
A touch, a kiss, a sigh of memory
Years and miles and more between us lie
And the bloom of a love that had to die.

With luck we’ll never see again
The pain in each other’s eyes
A glance of sorrow shared and then
We hide away behind our lies.

Tonight I must plan to sleep alone
Moonlight will not sparkle in my eyes
Yesterday’s seeds were cast and sown
For some tomorrow when every flower dies.
