Lately I go out with a net to catch dragonflies for my hair
Lately I go out and take sandwiches for emergencies
Lately I sweep elegantly down the streets on my bicycle
If I were to slip and cast pansies and cornflowers at your door...
I help the river flow
I'll take these seeds and sow the meadow
And when the West wind blows
I'll see the breezes caress you
Lead me onwards but don't tell me where
Sing a song of springtime and we'll take the air
Pay me visits but don't tell me when
If you come tomorrow, then we'll play again
Sometimes I pin drawings of ladybirds to my scarf
Sometimes girls come round to my house and place lavender in my hearth
Perhaps I'll take a walk into town and send packages to America
Whilst little boxes of memories stay tucked away on my shelf
I help the river flow
I'll take these seeds and sow the meadow
And when the West wind blows
I'll see the breezes caress you
Lead me onwards but don't tell me where
Sing a song of springtime and we'll take the air
Pay me visits but don't tell me when
If you come tomorrow, then we'll play again
Come tomorrow and we'll play again
Come tomorrow and we'll play again
