Hyacinth

I think my green thumb

Has led me to a real one

So glad the soil has yielded

Something more than bad luck

I began to believe

Nature’s magic was reserved for bees

Not for the men I meet

But those who sleep with flower by their head

Wake up with a lover in their bed

Don’t tell me the universe ain’t listening

I went to bed single, now I’m kissing

A man that was once a hyacinth

A man that was once a hyacinth

Don’t tell me the universe ain’t listening

I went to bed single, now I’m kissing

A man that was once a hyacinth

A man that was once a hyacinth

He never played football

But look at how he holds me

He never needed silverware but I’m his little spoon

And all the soup on his mouth came from me

Distant men ain’t fine as they used to be

The handsomest guys are

Caring and nearby

Life has taught me, life has shown

All the love I need is home

Is home

Don’t tell me the universe ain’t listening

I went to bed single, now I’m kissing

A man that was once a hyacinth

A man that was once a hyacinth

Don’t tell me the universe ain’t listening

I went to bed single, now I’m kissing

A man that was once a hyacinth

A man that was once a hyacinth
