Baby, I got you these flowers.

You wouldn't believe what I had to do

To get you these flowers,

But baby, I got you these flowers,

I'm holding these flowers up for you.

My love, I was strolling

The armed, guarded palace,

Praying to cease all these wars

When I saw the most beautiful

White rose

Shining from inside the walls.

So baby I got you these flowers,

I got you these flowers that I hope you'll love,

Because you're my queen and you so deserve

The most elegant flower of all.

So honey,

I saw the king eating sweetly,

Feasting on spoils of torment.

Upon that dizziness, I jumped the spike-piked fence

Into the courtyard.

Goddess, you wouldn't believe

The garden of Eden

That lies there neglected.

The flower of life,

The fountain of youth,

I felt our hearts beating,

And all of our dreams resurrected,

me and you.

So baby, I got you these flowers,

You wouldn't believe the journey I've gone

To get you these flowers,

But baby, I got you these flowers,

and of them's born all of our love.

My strength,

the king, he was eating,

Grapes, pomegranates,

All de-seeded, while he was feasting,

I crawled through the thorns,

Through the leaves of a fortress,

'til in my hands,

I was holding

This world's purest, bright white shimmering rose.

My love,

These flowers I got you,

These are not the flowers,

The flowers I sought.

That flower,

When I saw that flower

I felt I didn't deserve to hold.

So baby, I raided his fortress,

His garden of Eden ignored.

I gathered a sample of every blossom

Offered to me without thorns.

So baby, I got you these flowers,

I wanted them to be most perfect of all,

But baby I got you these flowers,

Our garden of Eden unblossomed.

Baby, I got you these flowers,

And I just really want to know,

Do you like these flowers?

Will you take these flowers?

If you do, there's no turning back.

Baby, I got you the most elegant flowers,

From our Mother Earth offered up,

And one day we'll have

Our Garden of Eden,

Our fountain of youth to sprout love.

So baby I got these flowers for you,

I know that it's not much,

But baby I got these flowers for you,

I got them for you, now we need to go.

You wouldn't believe the beauties I've seen

stemming from petals of these flowers I hold.

You wouldn't believe

The powers that be

Who are guarding this sacred secret long unnoticed.

Armies are scouting,

Baby, I got you these flowers, there's no going back now.

Baby, I got these flowers for you

Encased in vases most beautiful,

Baby, I got them for you,

These pots, this soil, these drops of the fountain of youth,

Baby, I got these flowers for you,

My love, these flowers, for you.

My queen, hands cupped,

I'm offering up these flowers,

Baby, I stole these flowers from the king,

Because these flowers, baby, they belong with you.

Will you

help me

grow them

into

the garden that we all deserve?

Baby, I got you these flowers,

I got them for you.

I gathered these flowers for you,

Blossoming seeds of all I love for you.

The only thing that's missing here is

baby,

you congregate stars for our heartbeat,

and I got these flowers for you.

I gathered these flowers for you.
