[Verse 1] I saw you dance alone down the waterline You were searching for secrets lost in the setting sun I said just wait a while and you'll understand How the wintry warlord gave poets another try To figure the reasons why, it takes a laugh and a half to unveil your scarlet eyes [Verse 2] She returned, was wearing that rose so well Broke down and cried because of the sun that had been up all day At the movies there would have been rain Oh, the bittersweet irony, rain replaced by tears [Verse 3] Ain't it funny how some things, look so different from afar When it comes to me and you The mirror stole our perfect view Now there is nothing left we can do And the story is done at last For the ghost of flowers past [Verse 4] I saw you shape the wings of a butterfly Until the colors fit like a puzzle already done But who am I to question the grand design Another headstone written to fix every broken rhyme Carved in the hands of time, for the singer inside to remind us of your life [Verse 5] In a place where nothing is real, let me tell you how I feel Didn't know which heart to mend So here's a drink to absent friends, for a love that never did end And the story is done at last, for the ghost of flowers past [Verse 6] Memories of yesteryear, is a part of you we'll travel here Now the curtains call this day upon us So ride this wave on wings of wondering Why those scarlet eyes still haunt me today [Verse 7] Back to the first day of summer The flowers that past greet the sunlight Again with a song, sung by angels of love [Verse 8] Who am I now? In the distance I hear broken words Calling me to the rhythmless core Trapped forever, in love with the girl on the shore [Verse 9] In a place where nothing is real, I feel like telling you just why We all drink to absent friends, and for a love that never dies Ain't it funny how the mirrors make sure perfect never last It all starts and ends right here with you, my ghost of flowers past [Outro] I saw you dance alone down the waterline You were searching for secrets lost in the setting sun I saw you shape the wings of a butterfly Now the riddle fits like a puzzle already done Though life had just begun I will meet you again on the shores where lovers run
