You threw my heart off beat
And stole the breath from the wind
When you smile at me
My face turns red and I don’t know what to think

Gemstones are jealous of the way
The sun bounces off your eyes
Everything you do and say
Leaves me mesmerized

I want to talk for hours
About your interests, your hopes and your fears
I want to bring you flowers
Every day for a thousand years

A lilac for when we first met
A moonflower ‘cause I’m thinking of you
A primrose so that you’ll never forget
The way our love grew

My intentions were good
But my words were confused
So I’m glad you understood
When I tried to say “I like you”

We planted a little garden
And we’re harvesting our dreams
We crafted a beautiful garland
Of our favorite memories

An iris because you said “yes”
A bellflower ‘cause I’m thinking of you
A tulip so that you’ll never forget
The way our love grew
