My flower

Oh, my flower, my sweetest one

When I met you, my heart was undone

You gave me life, you gave me light

But your mother didn't think it was right

The suitors came and they all bowed low

But your mother said they had to go

"They're not the one," she would always say

And I was left to wait another day

Her words cut deep, they hurt my soul

I loved you more than I could ever show

But still, I waited with hope in my heart

That one day you and I would never be apart

The suitors came and they all bowed low

But your mother said they had to go

"They're not the one," she would always say

And I was left to wait another day

Oh, my flower, I love you so

But fate has dealt us a painful blow

No ointment can soothe the pain

I feel For your mother's heart, I cannot steal

The suitors came and they all bowed low

But your mother said they had to go

"They're not the one," she would always say

And I was left to wait another day

Oh, my flower, I'll love you forevermore

Even if we cannot be together, I'll adore

Your beauty, your grace, your loving heart

My flower, my flower, we'll never be apart.
