When you've made the rounds And there's no one left around To take your loving to When all the words they've said Go whirling through your head But that's the soul of you Run to meadows green, beyond the city scene And invest your hours, in search of ivory towers Just talking to the flowers (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...) (Talking to the flowers) It's a wonderful day today (Talking to the flowers) Everything's going my way (Talking to the flowers) They've so much to say (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...) (Doodlute, doodlute, doodlute-do, doodlute, doodlute, doodlute-do) (Doodlute, doodlute, doodlute-do, doodlute, doodlute, doodlute-do, oooooo) When you can trace the pain By tears that flow like rain It's much too high a cost (Doodlute, doodlute, doodlute, doodlute-do) When you're sick with memories And all you ever see Is just a smile that's lost (Doodlute, doodlute, doodlute, doodlute-do) Run to meadows green, beyond the city scene And invest your hours, in search of ivory towers Just talking to the flowers (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,) (Talking to the flowers) It's a wonderful day today (Talking to the flowers) Everything's going my way (Talking to the flowers) (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...) They've so much to say
