Lyrics I Was - Florist

I Was

i was the boy with shoes too tight and ankles caught between the tides i was
the girl who wore a dress to Sunday school and that was it
i had a handkerchief that went around my neck
it wiped my tears, sweat my blood my innocence throughout the years and now i’m
not afraid
i’ve found a body, soul and mind that i can keep and now i’m not afraid
i’ve learned to love it and to keep it all the same
i was a wave, a cloud, a cliff, a slow parade
to short to speak
a lover with a heart of hide and seek
and now i know it’s tough to be an elephant tied to a wing
and now i’m not afraid
i found a love and they love me and now i’m not afraid
i found a love that’s here to stay
