flowers in your hair

when we were younger we thought

everyone was on our side

then we grew a little

and romanticized the time i saw

flowers in your hair

cause it takes a boy to live

but it takes a man to pretend he was there

so then we grew a little and knew a lot

and now we demonstrated it to the cops

and all the things we said

we were self-assured

cause it's a long road to wisdom

but it's a short one

to being ignored

be in my eyes

be in my heart

be in my eyes ai yai yai

be in my heart

so now i think that i could

love you back

and i hope it's not too late cause you're so attractive

and the way you move

i won't close my eyes

cause it takes a man to live

but it takes a woman to make him compromise

be in my eyes

be in my heart

be in my eyes ai yai yai

be in my heart
