The Flower Lady - Peter & Gordon[00:00:00]
Millionaires and paupers walk the lonely street[00:00:09]
Rich and poor companions of the restless feet[00:00:17]
Strangers in a foreign land[00:00:25]
Strike a match with the trembling hand[00:00:29]
Learn too much to ever understand[00:00:34]
But nobody's buying flowers from the flower lady[00:00:40]
Poets agonize they cannot find the words[00:00:52]
Stone stares at the sculptor says are you absurd[00:01:01]
Painter paints his brushes black[00:01:09]
Through the canvas runs a crack[00:01:13]
Portrait of the pain never answers back[00:01:17]
But nobody's buying flowers from the flower lady[00:01:24]
But nobody's buying flowers from the flower lady[00:02:08]
Feeble aged people almost to their knees[00:02:19]
Complain about the present using memories[00:02:28]
Never found their pot of gold[00:02:36]
Wrinkled hands pound weary holes[00:02:40]
Each line streams out you're old you're old[00:02:43]
You're old[00:02:48]
But nobody's buying flowers from the flower lady[00:02:51]
The flower lady hobbles home without a sale[00:03:03]
Tattered shreds of petals leave a fading trail[00:03:11]
Not a pause to hold a rose[00:03:19]
Even she no longer knows[00:03:23]
The lamp goes out the evening now is closed[00:03:26]
But nobody's buying flowers from the flower lady[00:03:34]
