Smell the Flowers
[Verse 1]
Yesterdays
Oh, how many do you wish you could relive?
Turn the page
And go back, oh, I wonder what you'd give
[Pre-Chorus]
Lookin' back, does it seem
When you planned and when you dreamed
You forgot the most important thing?
[Chorus]
Smell the flowers while the roses bloom
Take the time, my friend, and sing a happy tune
Oh, how precious, every mile
So take a minute, learn to smile
My friend, let's stop a while and smell the flowers
(Smell the flowers)
[Verse 2]
Got a troubled mind
Friend, if you let too much worry rule your day
When you look back
Do you feel like somethin' precious slipped away?
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, my friend, are you the man
Let the world slip through his hand?
Can you remember when you smelled the flowers?
[Chorus]
Smell the flowers while the roses bloom
Take the time, my friend, and sing a happy tune
Oh, how precious, every mile
Take a minute, learn to smile
My friend, let's stop a while and smell the flowers
(Smell the flowers)
[Outro]
Smell the flowers while the roses bloom
Take the time, my friend, and sing a happy tune
Oh, how precious, every mile
Take a minute, learn to smile
My friend, let's stop a while and smell the flowers
