歌曲歌詞
When No Flowers Grow (2005 Digital Remaster) - Merle Haggard
I don't know how long I stand at the window
Watching crosswinds erase
All her tracks in the snow
In her mind it's springtime
She goes to pick some flowers
In the cold dead winter
When no flowers grow
Many doctors have tried
But tried in vain to make my darling well
They say it would take a miracle
And only time will tell
Her mind is in another world
Her own little world
So she picks flowers
In the cold dead of winter
At a time no flowers grow
There was a time when her mind was sound
When she picked pretty flowers in the spring
She and little Mac
And I would take to the country
When we heard the first Robin sing
We loaded our car with daisies
Blue buns buttercups and marigolds
But life had a way of bringing the winter
And a time when no flowers grow
Little Mac had been making a snowman
And you know how little kids are
They soon get tired of playin' one game
Well Mac had crawled under the car
His mama twirled the keys
She threw me a kiss
And said Watch little Mac
Don't let him get cold
Well that was two years ago
And it's winter again
And a time when no flowers grow
I know there's a star called little Mac
Somewhere up there with the rest
And maybe someday she'll see it
But then maybe for her
This way is the best
I watched her arrange bare branches in a vase
Her flowers she picked from the snow
And sometimes they look like flowers to me
At a time when no flowers grow
I don't know how long I stand at the window
Watching crosswinds erase
All her tracks in the snow
In her mind it's springtime
And she goes to pick some flowers
In the cold dead of winter
When no flowers grow
In the cold dead of winter
When no flowers grow
