Flower Girl

I wasn't watching where I tread
I waltzed right through your flower bed
Once I'd noticed what I'd done
I couldn't bring myself to run
You floated down to scoop them up
Pressed your favorites into books
To keep them safe beside the bed
With borrowed ones I'd never read
Flower girl you've gone too soon
Carving our names in the middle of June
Summer brings me back to you
Right through your window and into your room

No one ever took the time
To plant the rows in perfect lines
Until that day you came along
And started singing foolish songs
No one every really knows what's underneath until it grows
And after all this precious time
A tangled mess of leaves and vines
Flower girl you've gone too soon
Carving our names
In the middle of June
Try to hold yourself in bloom
Forget-me-nots on the floor of your room

Flower girl you've gone too soon
Carving our names in the middle of June
Try to hold yourself in bloom
Forget-me-nots on the floor of your room
