lyrics

Oh Deanna,
How are you today?
I hear that the wind
Has blown your fears away

Over the ocean
Where the sea monsters play
Don’t be scared, don’t look back
Avert your eyes, look away

Strange how the mud thickens,
With a corpse underneath
You are a flower,
In a garden of weeds
You are a flower,
Growing (growing)
In a garden of weeds

And I / don’t know how / you’re still able to smile
At your friend who’s a sister and all the meanwhile
The hourglass bends, as time’s running out
And nobody knows, when their life is about

To end…
Like a candle’s dim glow
To end…
Like a child on death row

Strange how the mud thickens,
With a corpse underneath
You are a flower,
In a garden of weeds
You are a flower,
Growing (growing)
In a garden of weeds

And she wants / you to know / it’ll last for eternity
And you hope that she learns it’s okay to be happy
For there are those who we love,
no matter how long they’ve been gone
But still we remain and we must carry on

In the rain…
Standing alone
In the rain…
My heart shatters my bones
The arms…
Of the ocean reach for my hand
I close my eyes…
And know exactly who I am

Strange how the mud thickens,
With a corpse underneath
You are a flower,
In a garden of weeds
You are a flower,
Growing (growing)
In a garden of weeds

Ten years have passed and your sister’s all grown
She’s married and now has a child of her own

Strange how the mud thickens,
With a corpse underneath
You are a flower,
In a garden of weeds

You gave me everything I could ever need and more
You gave me happiness in all that we suffered for
And even flowers wilt long before their time
Strange how I’ve been hurting so long thinking that I’m fine

You will always be there (in the sky)
To help guide me there (never die)
Through the weeds (we will always be alive)

Strange how the mud thickens,
With a corpse underneath
You are a flower,
In a garden of weeds
You are a flower,
Growing (growing)
In a garden of weeds

(Piano)
Oh Deanna,
How are you today?
I hear that the wind
Has blown your fears away
