I was going to cut some flowers,
But you never showed.
I was thinking of shorter hair,
But now, I think I'll let it grow.
I was thinking about the days,
We had so very long ago.
I was thinking of the love we had,
I was just thinking, don't ya know?
I was praying for a better world,
Of a peace beyond compare.
I was praying for the words' of God,
So that all mankind could share.
I was going to cut some flowers',
But you never came.
I think I'll cut them anyway,
I'll cut them just the same!
