Keep the Poppies
For awhile I thought that I wanted to do
Everything that everyone was doing too
For awhile I thought that I wanted to be
Always pleasing everyone but me
Now I've got a little house built in my mind
Right on the sea where friends come by from time to time
Where the wind blows through the windows late at night
With poppies growing in the garden
In the morning light
I wake up in the wrong town at the wrong time
So I just close my eyes
And keep the poppies on my mind
There've been times I spent sitting with my sorrow
So I wrote it away
There've been times I had no money left to borrow
And I'd forgotten why I sang
But above all what I'd really like to do
Is find a place we really love, just me and you
Spend our nights slow dancing in the living room
With poppies growing in the garden
In the morning light
I wake up in the wrong town at the wrong time
So I just close my eyes
And keep the poppies on my mind
Keep the poppies, keep the poppies
Keep you by my side
Pack your bags, our kingdom's calling
Leave the rest behind
Keep the poppies, keep the poppies
Keep you by my side
Pack your bags, our kingdom's calling
Leave the rest behind
Everything that everyone was doing too
For awhile I thought that I wanted to be
Always pleasing everyone but me
Now I've got a little house built in my mind
Right on the sea where friends come by from time to time
Where the wind blows through the windows late at night
With poppies growing in the garden
In the morning light
I wake up in the wrong town at the wrong time
So I just close my eyes
And keep the poppies on my mind
There've been times I spent sitting with my sorrow
So I wrote it away
There've been times I had no money left to borrow
And I'd forgotten why I sang
But above all what I'd really like to do
Is find a place we really love, just me and you
Spend our nights slow dancing in the living room
With poppies growing in the garden
In the morning light
I wake up in the wrong town at the wrong time
So I just close my eyes
And keep the poppies on my mind
Keep the poppies, keep the poppies
Keep you by my side
Pack your bags, our kingdom's calling
Leave the rest behind
Keep the poppies, keep the poppies
Keep you by my side
Pack your bags, our kingdom's calling
Leave the rest behind
