Delphinium Blue

I saw I missed your call

Sorry for not picking up

I got the job at the flower shop

I sweep the floors but I'm talking to you

I see your eyes in the delphinium too

I've become a servant to their blue

Chin up

Stay on task

Wash the windows

Count the cash

I picked up another couple of shifts

I hear your voice when I'm closing

The nights fall like thorns off the roses

All around me the narcissus bloom

I picture the sun hitting you

The air is filled with their perfume

Chin up

Stay on task

Wash the windows

Count the cash

Cut the stems

To make them last

Keep it cool

Behind the glass

With their perfume
