Hummingbird

In the garden where I like to grow
There's this gorgeous girl I'd like to know
The problem is she's not looking at me
I'm trying to catch her eye before the snow
My petals might not be the brightest (brightest)
My fruits might not be the ripest (ripest)
In the forest, not the tallest tree
But taste me nectar, it's the nicest
Hummingbird, you're my little hummingbird
Rest your wings on my flower
Hoping, with me, you'll land (you're my hummingbird)
Hummingbird, you're my little hummingbird
Flying 'round me for hours
Hoping, with me, you'll land (you're my hummingbird)
Her feathers are the finest
Her touch is just the lightest
In the sky, I see you soaring free
To me, she'll always be the flyest
The roses always come with thorns
The orchids wash away with storms
All these flowers that she's flying to
There will never be enough for you
Hummingbird, you're my little hummingbird
Rest your wings on my flower
Hoping, with me, you'll land (you're my hummingbird)
Hummingbird, such a little hummingbird
Flying 'round me for hours
Hoping, with me, you'll land (you're my hummingbird)
You don't need proof I'm here for you
(I'm always here for you) always here for you
Oh
Hummingbird, you're my little hummingbird
Rest your wings on my flower
Hoping, one day, you'll land (you're my hummingbird)
Hummingbird, such a little hummingbird
Flying 'round me for hours
Hoping, one day, you'll land (you're my hummingbird)
Oh (you're my hummingbird)
Oh (you're my hummingbird)
Oh (you're my hummingbird)
You're my hummingbird (you're my hummingbird)
(Ooh)
