Texas flower (blossoming) ©  aug. 25, 1998



she comes to me in gracefullness
but she does not see her beauty
she thinks she is nothing special
proving her wrong is my duty

as sweet as the rose she is
she does not know her worth yet
i comfort her with warm words
lady, you haven't seen anything yet

this flower hasn't blossomed
but i water her with care
she soon will see her beauty
though she thinks it's not there

she comes to me in tenderness
and holds me so carefully to her
she knows i am a hurting guy
it is a pleasure to know her

Texas flower blossoming
beauty unfolding from her hidden pain
let loose of all the bad in your life
don't fall prey to using men again

show the beauty that i see
ripen the flowerbud to grow
blossom into your goodness
your sweetness and all that your afraid to show

i will be here for you and care about you
helping you to find yourself
though friends we may be, it's lovingly
and i'd like to release you from your hell

come to me, gracefully, sweetly
southern belle, texas flower to me
i wish you an early happy birthday
i wish in you, that you could see, what i see
