lyrics

should i
shouldn't i
i've been pulling petals
i don't know
i don't know
if i can bear
the truth in your eyes
your eyes...
it's much better this way
from a distance
i can see your face
i love to hear your
voice exclaim
your voice...
they say love takes time
but time makes a fool of us all
and i'm foolish after all
i've pulled a petal off
a daffodil wishing to call you dear
but it's ok with me
i love to hear you speak
here where i can gather petals
in your favor
i'll make a wreath
you can be the Caesar
and i'll never be Brutus...
this is why i'm still
in the bushes with my
love
my foolish way of
comparing myself to Brutus
when I should have picked
Cleopatra cause obviously
that's the one you say!
but i know that i'm no Cleopatra
i'm not even kind-of
in company i can't even say
the sole thing i'm trying to say
when ahhhh! You're so clever...
but yeah i'm really into you...
whatever.
