Verse 1
C 
F 
C 
A girl once introduced herself and said
Dm 
C 
her life's as beautiful as you make it
F 
C 
Oh, as you make it
F 
Her name was Honey Spirit Flame,
C 
poem which asked of love
She asked me to take it
F 
C 
So did I  take it
And so I met the girl who
F 
C 
Ab 
talked to flowers
Fm 
C 
in her wintertime
Csus4 
F 
Not knowing yet what it
Fm 
Ab 
Fm 
would mean to me
C 
How blind I was to yet exhume
Fm 
C 
the wisdom held within a bloom
But flowers give the best advice,
if we could only listen when
G 
C 
Csus4 
C 
we're safe
Csus4 
She spoke to me a history
C 
too sad for words,
and an eye unheard forever
Csus4 
C 
Nearly forever
Csus4 
Her petals worn and torn by       storm
C 
Yet still she stayed as beautiful as ever
Csus4 
C 
I thought I felt better
Csus4 
But I wept upon the girl
C 
Fm 
who took two flowers
C 
in her wintertime
Csus4 
Beneath the night and
C 
walls of yesterday
Fm 
C 
Csus4 
C 
My soul catharsis told my heart
Ab 
C 
To look above beyond the thorns
Csus4 
C 
If flowers  give the best advice
Ab 
Fm 
C 
Perhaps I'll sit and listen what they
G 
C 
Csus4 
C 
Csus4 
C 
say
Yet moments move from hours
Csus4 
C 
to days     to weeks,
still in my memory
I will hold her, oh, I will hold her
Csus4 
I'm glad I'll be to cross the earth
C 
to see her once again
before it gets colder.
Csus4 
C 
So I told her,
Csus4 
C 
Ab 
but still    I miss the girl who talks to flowers
Fm 
C 
in her win tertime,
Csus4 
C 
Fm 
Ab 
C 
and when I sleep    I always dream of her.
Csus4 
And when I wake I hope
C 
Fm 
Ab 
That half a world away,
C 
she dreams of me
Csus4 
C 
From following a flower's
Ab 
C 
I love her much, but want her to run free
Csus4 
C 
Want her to run free
Csus4 
C 
Wanted to run free, run      free
