They got the rhythm and I got the blues
the crowd is getting wild while I’m still trying to find
a better wine
but there’s only beer and sweat and
hopelessly smoking silouettes

I wish that I could find you
I wish that I could find you here

Now everybody’s movin’ slowly
but still too fast for me
and there is too much light
just for a minute I need to step outside
fresh air
a dog is barking, a car is parking,
a couple is kissing
when suddenly

II: There you are, handing me flowers
handing me flowers
could somebody please pinch me :II

I turn around and look for you in the dark
but you’re gone
and where you stood lies a lonely tulip, well it’s a start
better than nothing, maybe it’s everything
I turn around and sing
the couple is still kissing
when suddenly

II: There you are, handing me flowers
handing me flowers
could somebody please pinch me :II

II: pearl white blooming flowers :II

II: There you are, handing me flowers
handing me flowers
could somebody please pinch me :II
