Telling It to the Daisies

Why am I so bashful, so afraid to part

With a lot of love words locked up in my heart?

For the want of courage, foolishly I tried

To conceal what I reveal by a countryside

Tellin' it to the daisies, hopin' they tell you too

Pourin' my heart out to them, but it never gets back to you

What do I do on Sunday under those lonely skies?

Same as I do on Monday, but they never do put you wise

Oh, I'm so in love with you and oh

I fear you're never gonna know

Unless the birdies tell you so

I know I'm wastin' lot of love time

Time and again I'm blue

Tellin' it to the daisies, but it never gets back to you

I keep on tellin' the daisies of the way that I'm blue, oh so blue

Pourin' my heart out to them, but it never gets back to you

I keep on tellin' the daisies underneath the skies, lonely skies

Tellin' 'em how I miss you, but they never do put you wise

Oh, I'm so in love with you, it's easily seen that I'm shy

Words just miss when I'm feelin' like this, my tongue is tied

I keep on wastin' my love time just a-waitin' for you, that's all I do

Tellin' it to the daisies, but it never gets back to you

That's all!
