New Radicals Lyrics
"Flowers"

Oooh---

It's '97, why aren't things wild?
You said you was a flower child.
I can respect your soul searching
But now's no time for questioning.
I'm sure you've been misled before
And once you'd trust they'd slam the door.
But I'm everything I've claimed to be.
You just need vodka and honesty.

Do you know who I am?
Do you know who I am---am?

My love is real
As real as the flowers you smoke to get high.
My love is real
As real as our god who has spoken on how we can fly.
My love is real
As real as the flowers, flowers, flowers, flowers.

You're 22, why aren't you free?
You're mom and dad's victory
A soul that's lived a thousand lives. (Oooh, ooh)
Don't hide behind a child's eyes.
I'm sure you've been misled before
And once you'd trust they'd slam the door.
But I'm everything I've claimed to be.
You just need vodka and honesty, yeah right.

Do you know who I am?
Do you know who I am---am?

My love is real
As real as the flowers you smoke to get high.
My love is real
As real as our god who has spoken on how we can fly.
My love is real
As real as the flowers, flowers, flowers, flowers.

I love you, ya hate me.
I took math class that ain't a fair exchange
I call you, you hang up.
Don't have to be a bitch and get your number changed.
I'm sorry, forgive me.
I never meant to call you those names
But I'm lonely, so lonely, please
Ow!

I love you, ya hate me
I took math class that ain't a fair exchange.
I call you, you hang up.
Don't have to be a bitch and get your number changed.
I'm sorry, forgive me.
I never meant to call you those names.
But I'm lonely, so lonely, please.

Just know that,
My love is real
As real as the flowers you smoke to get high.
My love is real
As real as our god who has spoken on how we can fly.
