angelica

each night i meant to say

i'd missed her through the day

but i'd forget it

i never said it

i passed the flower shop

lord knows i meant to stop

but i'd say tomorrow

perhaps tomorrow

tomorrow there'd be time

there'd always be another spring

time to make her laughter ring

time to give her everything

oh my angelica

my angelica

there's so much you never knew

so much i always meant to say

and do

for you

for you

angelica

and then the cold winds came

and when i spoke her name

and felt her near me

she couldn't hear me

her shadow had been cast

too many springs had passed

for angelica

sweet angelica

now in my solitude

i tend the flowers that i buy

as they slowly fade and die

watered by the tears i cry

for my angelica

my angelica

there's so much you never knew

so much i always meant to say

and do

for you

for you

angelica

angelica

angelica

angelica
