1st Verse
There were flowers on the radio;
Flower Power on the TV too
and that’s when I met my lady oh,
oh, the prettiest girl I ever knew.
2nd Verse
There were marches for equality
and a man had just stepped on the moon.
Anything was possible, it seemed.
Thought maybe I’d count on Dame Fortune.
Chorus:
So I took my heart in my hands
and I asked that girl to the dance;
the girl with flowers in her hair
and when she said yes; well, I declare,
there were flowers blooming everywhere;
there were flowers blooming everywhere.
3rd Verse:
Now some say that nothing changed at all;
modern people can be so cynical
but some changes were just very small
and, for me, that day was a miracle.
4th Verse
It was the day that really changed my life
because that flower girl became my wife.
I guess the moral of my story must
be, let love speak out; it might be glorious.
Chorus:
‘Cause I took my heart in my hands
and I asked that girl to the dance;
the girl with flowers in her hair
and when she said yes; well, I declare,
there were flowers blooming everywhere;
there were flowers blooming everywhere.

Thanks, Tina. Think you might be mixing me up with Richard/Blighters Rock. Very glad you enjoyed it though.
