You, you were a wild flower
I remember, long ago
And you would climb the orchard
And Near the fires, you would go
One day you took
My hand and said ‘’Where can we go’’
To central park and see the birds
And stay out until dark so
We set about, without a doubt
We’d be back
But how was I to know that
This day would be our last
Chrysanthemum, you who could not be found
Like a flower wilting, your tears were falling down
Chrysanthemum, now won’t you hear the sound
Like a whisper in the wind, as your pedals hit the ground
Chrysanthemum
As the night appeared
And the sunset, was drawing near
You followed the butterflies
Flying so high in the sky,
Said, don’t ever leave my sight
And I called your name
But no response would come my way
I looked for you but in dismay
I thought you’d hid away
But when came the dark
My whole world fell apart
How could this be, that you would be
Taken so suddenly
Chrysanthemum, you who could not be found
Like a flower wilting, your tears were falling down
Chrysanthemum, now won’t you hear the sound
Like a whisper in the wind, as your pedals hit the ground
Chrysanthemum
Now I have searched
For years but only, to come back
Without you here with me
And even after all this time
I hope that one day, you’ll show a sign
Cause on that dreaded fateful day
A bad man came, and took you away
Won’t you come back home to me
Chrysanthemum, you who could not be found
Like a flower wilting, your tears were falling down
Chrysanthemum, now won’t you hear the sound
Like a whisper in the wind, as your pedals hit the ground
Chrysanthemum
