lirik lagu jim & jean - flower lady
[verse 1: jim & jean glover]
millionaires and paupers walk the hungry streets
rich and poor companions of the restless beat
strangers in a foreign land
strike a match with a trembling hand
learn too much to ever understand
[refrain: jim & jean glover]
but n0body’s buying flowers from the flower lady
[verse 2: jim & jean glover]
lovers quarrel, snarl away their happiness
kisses crumble in a web of loneliness
it’s written by the poison pen
voices break before they bend
the door is slammed, it’s over once again
[refrain: jim & jean glover]
but n0body’s buying flowers from the flowеr lady
[verse 3: jim & jean glover]
poets agonize, they cannot find thе words
the stone stares at the sculptor, asks “are you absurd?”
painter paints his brushes black
through the canvas runs a crack
portrait of the pain never answers back
[refrain: jim & jean glover]
but n0body’s buying flowers from the flower lady
[verse 4: jim & jean glover]
soldiers disillusioned come home from the war
sarcastic students tell them not to fight no more
and they argue through the night
black is black and white is white
walk away both knowing they are right
[refrain: jim & jean glover]
but n0body’s buying flowers from the flower lady
[instrumental break]
[refrain: jim & jean glover]
but n0body’s buying flowers from the flower lady
[verse 5: jim & jean glover]
feeble aged people almost to their knees
complain about the present using memories
never found their pot of gold
wrinkled hands pound weary holes
each line screams out, “you’re old, you’re old, you’re old”
[refrain: jim & jean glover]
but n0body’s buying flowers from the flower lady
[verse 6: jean glover, jim glover, both]
and the flower lady hobbles home without a sale
tattered shreds of petals leave a fading trail
not a pause to hold a rose (not a pause to hold a rose)
even she no longer knows (even she no longer knows)
the lamp goes out (the lamp goes out), the evening now is closed
[refrain: jim & jean glover]
but n0body’s buying flowers from the flower lady
