Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was walkin' in the park

Dreamin' of a spark

When I heard the sprinklers whisper

Shimmer in the haze of summer lawns

Then I heard the children singin'

They were runnin' through the rainbows

They were singin' a song for you

Well it seemed to be a song for you

The one I wanted to write for you

For you

You

[Verse 2]

Lavender's blue, dilly-dilly, lavender's green

When I am king, dilly-dilly, you will be queen

A penny for your thoughts, my dear

A penny for your thoughts, my dear

I.O.U. for your love

I.O.U. for your love

[Verse 3]

Lavender's green, dilly-dilly, lavender's blue

When you love me, dilly-dilly, I will love you

A penny for your thoughts, my dear

A penny for your thoughts, my dear

I.O.U. for your love

I.O.U. for your love

[Verse 4]

Lavender dreams, dilly-dilly, lavender's true

When you miss me, dilly-dilly, I did miss you

A penny for your thoughts, my dear

A penny for your thoughts, my dear

I.O.U. for your love

I.O.U. for your love

For your love, for your love

For your love

[Verse 5]

Oh, I gotta get back to you

Gotta find a way back to you

For your love, for your love

For your love

[Verse 6]

I'm always walkin' in the park

Always dreamin' of a spark

From you
