l. frank baum - ask the flowers to tell you lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
there’s a little flow’ret
pretty little flow’ret!
nestling in the meadow green;
petals white and spreading
golden center wedding
daintier was never seen!

lovers come to gather
and to ask it whether
“she loves me or loves me not?”
like a necromancer
daisy gives the answer
then the flow’r is soon forgot

[bridge]
he loves me, she loves me not!
she loves me, he loves me not!
daisy leaf, pray tell me true:
loves he me? oh, tell me, do!
she loves me, he loves me not!
he loves me, she loves me not!
give me quick the answer pray
loves he me? oh, daisy say!

[refrain]
ask the flow’rs to tell you
and they’ll always tell you true
they’re the wisest little things
that mortals ever knew
when you’re puzzled or in doubt
just seek the clever blossoms out
and ask the flow’rs to tell you for
they’ll always tell you true
ask the flow’rs to tell you
and they’ll always tell you true
they’re the wisest little things
that mortals ever knew
when you’re puzzled or in doubt
just seek the clever blossoms out
and ask the flow’rs to tell you for
they’ll always tell you true

[verse]
in the meadow hiding
honest and confiding
grows the golden b+ttercup
yellow hues reflecting
when it’s glow expecting
to your chin you hold it up

seeing is believing
so it’s not deceiving
when it tints your face with gold;
blissfully assuring
happy and alluring
is the message when it’s told:

[bridge]
b+ttercup, pray let me see
if your test means joy for me!
love you b+tter? then you’ll be
fond and true eternally!
this the sign well known of old
if you love, reflect the gold!
but if not, a visage cold
o’er the flow’r i will behold!
[refrain]
ask the flow’rs to tell you
and they’ll always tell you true
they’re the wisest little things
that mortals ever knew
when you’re puzzled or in doubt
just seek the clever blossoms out
and ask the flow’rs to tell you for
they’ll always tell you true

ask the flow’rs to tell you
and they’ll always tell you true
they’re the wisest little things
that mortals ever knew
when you’re puzzled or in doubt
just seek the clever blossoms out
and ask the flow’rs to tell you for
they’ll always tell you true

[verse]
you may ask the roses
when your love proposes:
“is the answer yes, or no?”
he’s no need to guess it
for they’ll quick confess it
by the color that they show
in her hair reposes
reddest of the roses
if the maid will answer “yes”
but a white rose choosing
means she is refusing
and your suit you may not press

[bridge]
roses red have ever said
that the maid her love will wed
roses white will cupid fright
lovers all deplore the sight!
so the maids, with careless grace
in their hair the tokens place
and you’re fate you quickly see—
“yes” or “no!” ’tis sure to be

[refrain]
ask the flow’rs to tell you
and they’ll always tell you true
they’re the wisest little things
that mortals ever knew
when you’re puzzled or in doubt
just seek the clever blossoms out
and ask the flow’rs to tell you for
they’ll always tell you true

ask the flow’rs to tell you
and they’ll always tell you true
they’re the wisest little things
that mortals ever knew
when you’re puzzled or in doubt
just seek the clever blossoms out
and ask the flow’rs to tell you for
they’ll always tell you true
