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 impossible to pay all the things you gave away So this flower I give, will have to do Oh, 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, 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 the world if I could So 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 I have everything I need because of you
