lyrics

Serious

Blackbird, sat Outside My Window
Have You Got Something To Say
What Words Could Eclipse The Silence
Of The Way I Feel Today

Why Count The Time In Hours
Watching Shadows Come And Go
I’d Rather Watch My Flowers Grow

‘Cos It Ain’t Necessarily Love
But Something More Mysterious
That Keeps Me From Giving Up
When Things Get Serious

I Hesitated And I Lost
Every Dream I Had,
Now, As I Sit And Count The Cost
It Don’t Feel So Bad

Why Count The Time In Hours
Watching Shadows Come And Go
I’d Rather Watch My Flowers Grow

‘Cos It Ain’t Necessarily Love
But Something More Mysterious
That Keeps Me From Giving Up
When Things Get Serious

And It Ain’t Necessarily So
That I Ever Meant To Let You Go
It’s Just That I Take It Slowly
When Things Get Serious
When Things Get Serious

I Hesitated And I Lost
Every Dream I Had
