I couldn't have it, yes, I let it get in

The helpless optimism of spring

Worn out and tired and my heart never tied

And the world bent double from weeping

And yet, the birds begin to sing

Oh, oh, oh

Daffodil

I'm not bad, I'm not good

I drank every sky that I could

Made myself mythical, tried to be real

Saw the future in the face of a

Daffodil

You practice resurrection every night

Raising the dead under the moonlight

And in the gloaming, I start to cry

You're a perfect pearl hung in the sky

There is no bad, there is no good

I drank all the blood that I could

Made myself mythical, tried to be real

Saw the future in the face of a

English Sun, she has come

To kiss my face and tell me I'm that chosen one

We're drying out and hanging on by the skin of our teeth

I never thought it would get this far

This somewhat drunken joke

Sometimes I see so much beauty

I don't think that I can cope

There is no bad, there is no good

I drank every sky that I could

Made myself mythical, tried to be real

Saw the future in the face of a
