Well this flower is my soul
But it's not half of what I owe
I should give you every rose that ever grew
But take this one here for a start
And you can keep it in your heart
I have everything I need because of you
Well if my life was long enough
To pack up everything I love
I would do just that and give it all to you
But it's imposssible to pay
All the things you gave away
So this flower I give will have to do
All the flowers growing wild
For ten thousand lonely miles
It's not near enough to give you what I should
So I will owe you for a while
Maybe longer than my time
I would give you all that world if I could
