I saw you bloom where the shadows stay
A splash of gold in the ashen gray
The wind sang low
The trees stood still
You danced alone
Sweet daffodil
Oh daffodil
Daffodil
Don’t you cry
The sun’s your lover
The clouds just lie
You sway so soft
But you’re strong as steel
Oh daffodil
Daffodil
What’s the deal
Your petals laugh while the world feels sore
You kiss the dirt but you ask for more
A fragile crown on a kingdom small
Still you rise when the cold winds call
Why do you shine when the night is near
Why do you grow when the frost is here
Oh daffodil
Daffodil
Don’t you cry
The sun’s your lover
The clouds just lie
You sway so soft
But you’re strong as steel
Oh daffodil
Daffodil
What’s the deal
If I could bend like you in the breeze
Would my heart ache or find its ease
You never fight but you never break
Teach me the strength that your roots create
