Flowers In Your Hair

(album: The Lumineers - 2012)

When we were younger we thought
Everyone was on our side
Then we grew a little
And romanticized the time I saw
Flowers in your hair

See, it takes a boy to live
It takes a man to pretend he was there

So then we grew a little and knew a lot
And now we demonstrated it to the cops
And all the things we said
We were self-assured

'Cause it's a long road to wisdom
But it's a short one to being ignored

Be in my eyes
Be in my heart
Be in my eyes
Aye, aye, aye
Be in my heart

So now I think that I could love you back
And I hope it's not too late 'cause you're so attractive
And the way you move
I won't close my eyes

'Cause it takes a man to live
It takes a woman to make him compromise

Be in my eyes
Be in my heart
Be in my eyes
Aye, aye, aye
Be in my heart
