When a new life turns towards you And the night becomes a bay We shall remain forever Everyone who meets his way Oh, our love is like the flowers The rain and the sea and the hours Oh, our love is like the flowers The rain and the sea and the hours When the rain falls to the sea They'll be waiting for you and for me And the sky reflects our image Trying to sleep right through our lives Oh, our love is like the earth The sun and the trees and the birth Oh, our love is like the earth The sun and the trees and the birth I am still here two days later Same place, same time And I'm stuck here two years too long Same place, the wrong time Oh, our love is like the flowers The rain and the sea and the hours Oh, our love is like the flowers The sun and the sea and the hours Their love died three years ago Spoken words I cannot show
