|
Sentimental gestures never |
|
Meant that much to me |
|
But if I had her here today |
|
I'd shed a tear for all the world to see |
|
Cut flowers sent |
|
To a girl with sentimental ways |
|
Cut flowers meant |
|
More to her on ordinary days |
|
A gentle girl who needed |
|
All the love I had to give |
|
But I was blind to her and would not |
|
Give her what she needed most to live |
|
Cut flowers sent |
|
To a girl with sentimental ways |
|
Cut flowers meant |
|
More to her on ordinary days |
|
Cut flowers, flowers, flowers |
|
Cut flowers, flowers, flowers |
|
Cut flowers pressed between the pages |
|
Of a book she gave (She gave to me) |
|
I go to her and say, "I'm sorry" |
|
Then I put cut flowers on her grave |
|
Cut flowers sent |
|
To a girl with sentimental ways |
|
Cut flowers meant |
|
More to her on ordinary days |
|
Cut flowers, flowers, flowers |
|
Cut flowers, flowers, flowers |
