Lyrics for Strange Flowers by Dave Stewart and Soft Parade from the album Puur

Strange Flowers
Came all the way on my own
I left my greenhouse overgrown
Had to leave ‘cause of me
I kept myself from being free
Thought I didn’t dream anymore
I saw a light from behind your door
Telling me that you had new
Strange flowers growing inside of you
What’s beyond is never gone
We all enter the unknown
Stand with seven in front of a big gate
Could be hours, could be minutes too late
It’s a story about special dreamers, well meaners,
Clear visionary
Well wishers, pearl fishers
Will all come to see
All those strange flowers grow inside you
While my garden begins to bloom
I see it happening to you
I scent this bitter-free perfume
Of stardust pollen whirling through
Stardust all over the floor
There’s a light from behind your door
Shining on the new
Strange flowers growing inside of you
