lyrics

Wearing that deep purple dress, got flowers in your hair.
Don't want to spend this whole party alone in that chair,
and when he smiles at you, it's so easy to see;
if you just said hello, girl, you'd be so free.

But you're always on the outside of everything,
trying to go along with that perfect swing.
You are one third daffodil, my dear.
Start weaving, you're here.

Holding hands never used to feel like a chore,
but he just had to go and open that door,
and now the ends are all woven in,
and you're left in the breeze, girl made of string.

You've got to open the oyster to get to the pearl.
Feel free to laugh, it's not the end of the world.
Every thunderstorm leads to a rainbow,
and every wallflower must grow.

Even when you're always on the outside of everything,
trying to go along with that perfect swing.
You are one third daffodil, my dear.
Start weaving, you're here.

Got those big sunglasses on to keep the rest of the world out.
Always learned to whisper when you wanted to shout.
Never wore dresses; they draw too much attention to you.
Never stopped to daydream, you just stare straight on through.

But you've got to open the oyster to get to the pearl.
Feel free to laugh, it's not the end of the world.
Every thunderstorm leads to a rainbow,
and every wallflower must grow.

Even though you're always on the outside of everything,
trying to go along with that perfect swing.
You are one third daffodil, my dear.
Start weaving, you're here.
