"The Garden/All in the Golden Afternoon," from Alice in Wonderland
Little bread-and-butterflies kiss the tulips
And the sun is like a toy balloon
There are get up in the morning glories
In the golden afternoon

There are dizzy daffodils on the hillside
Strings of violets are all in tune
Tiger lilies love the dandy lions
In the golden afternoon
(The golden afternoon)

There are dog and caterpillars and the copper centipede
Where the lazy daisies love the very peaceful life
They lead...

You can learn a lot of things from the flowers
For especially in the month of June
There's a wealth of happiness and romance
All in the golden afternoon

All in the golden afternoon
The golden afternoon...

"Wildflowers," Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt

"Children's Crusade," Sting
Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
All of those young lives betrayed...

"Battle Hymn of the Republic," Judy Garland
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me;
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free!
While God is marching on.

"Not Getting Married Today," from Company
Thank you all
For the gifts and the flowers,
Thank you all,
Now it's back to the showers,
Don't tell Paul,
But I'm not getting married today...

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Another Galaxy," Paul Simon
Leaving all the yellow roses on her wedding cake
Her mother's tears, her breakfast order
She's gone, gone, gone

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Cabaret," from Cabaret
I used to have this girlfriend known as Elsie
With whom I shared four sordid rooms in Chelsea
She wasn't what you'd call a blushing flower
As a matter of fact she rented by the hour...

 

[lisaviolet]

You know the bar down the street don't close for an hour
We should take a walk and look at all the flowers
'Cause I'm alright with a slow burn
Takin' my time, let the world turn
I'm gonna do it my way, it'll be alright
If we burn it down and it takes all night
It's a slow burn
Mm, whatever feels good

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"Right Field," Peter, Paul and Mary
That's why I'm here in right field
Just watching the dandelions grow...

 

[lisaviolet]

Wind in time
Rapes the flower
Trembling on the vine
And nothing yields to shelter
From above
They say temptation will destroy our love
The never ending hunger

 

[lisaviolet]

All the flowers that you planted mama
In the backyard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try

Newspaper - Fiona Apple

And it's a shame, because you and I didn't get a witness
We're the only ones who know
We were cursed, the moment that he kissed us
From then on, it was his big show
From then on, it was his big show
From then on, it was his big show
And you're wearing time, like a flowery crown
Sitting that, sitting that big cat down
And I'm alone on the summit now
Trying not to let my light go out

 

[lisaviolet]

Kiss me, (kiss me) down by the broken tree house
Swing me, (swing me) upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, (bring, bring) bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
Oh, kiss me, beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me

 

[RedAngie]

I bought you drinks, I brought you flowers
I read your books and talked for hours
Every day, so many drinks
Such pretty flowers, so tell me
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?

 

[Imzadi]

The Yellow Rose of Texas - an old civil war folk song.
