Happy Flower

You and me

We sweat, we slave

We gamble recklessly

As if a dagger in the dark

Me and you

We misbehave

We trample fecklessly

Upon the bladder of our hearts

But it’s a happy flower in the mornin' sun

And it’ll keep perfumin' when the mornin's done

This ain’t no tacky flower in a masquerade

And it’ll keep on bloomin' 'til it steals the shade

Of the garden 'neath our window pane

You and me

We leave, we lie

We're runnin' through the ramble

Off the road of sad goodbyes

Me and you

We tease, we try

We're cuttin' off the ample charms

Put forward from the skies

But it’s a happy flower in the mornin' sun

And it’ll keep on glowin' when the mornin's done

And though our happy flower doesn't make a sound

Well, it’ll keep growin' 'til it fills the ground

Of the garden 'neath our window pane

Happy flower, happy flower

Happy flower, happy flower

Happy flower, happy flower

Happy flower, happy flower

Happy flower
