Wallflowers
John Samaras
Late to bloom but first to leave
Lost your petals in the breeze
So adored yet still withdrawn
In the place where you belong
The whole world will wait for you
Flashing a smile just to be seen
While you’re watching, vacant
We always end up living too fast
Peering behind the stained glass
All we can do is try to relate
Mysteries kept in the clay
The whole world will wait for you
Flashing a smile just to be seen
Still you’re watching, vacant
