Flower On the Water

To hear your voice, to see you smile To sit and talk to you awhile To be together the same old way That would be our greatest wish today To hear you laugh, to hear you cry Or just a chance to say 'goodbye' To say the things we didn't say That would be our greatest wish today But all we can do is throw a flower on the water Look for the sun through the rain Lay a little frangipani gentle on the water Remember how we loved you To comb your hair, to lace your shoes Buy some flowers, let you choose A phone call when you're away Just to see if you're okay
