Thompson Twins - Flower Girl Lyrics

Yeah, wild nights, long hot days
Love affairs begin this way
And all the girls dance real slow
Lipstick kisses, dirty dreams
Heartbeats faster than a drum machine
Will he be the one to take you home?

I'm floating up into the sky
And everything will be just fine

(chorus)
Here comes that flower girl
With her ice cream eyes and faraway smile
Here comes that flower girl of mine

See-through heart shines in the dark
Forget me not, I hear you laugh
On days like this I'd die for you
Love comes easy; love comes fast
I get so scared that it won't last
What am I supposed to do?

I'm floating up into the sky
And everything will be just fine

(REPEAT CHORUS)
Float up high and float away
Listen to what the flowers say
Float up high and float away
Come again some other day

Passion comes and passion goes
Fades just like a paper rose
All is nothing; nothing's new
From Istanbul to Sugar Hill
Everybody wants the thrill
But all I ever want is you

I'm floating up into the sky
And everyone is floating by

(REPEAT CHORUS x 2)
