Barbra Streisand - House Of Flowers

When a bee lies sleeping
In the palm of your hand
You're bewitched
And deep in love's long looked after land

Where you'll see a sun up sky
With a morning new
And where the days go laughing by
As love comes a-calling on you

Right as the rain
That falls from above
So real, so right is our love
It came like the spring
That breaks through the snow
I can't say what it may bring
I only know...I only know...

I'm gonna love you, like nobody loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't ever bet me
Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Rain or shine
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't it be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of our money
I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine

My house is made of flowers
The warm winds carpet the floor
Whenever there´s spring showers
I open a rainbow door
The frog, the toad, the turtle
All make my home their home
My curtains are crape myrtle
And the fireflies fly 'neath my dome
I´ve never had money
And I´ll never need none
The moon is my lamp
And my clock is the sun
My home´s a home
For all those things
What grows, what flies, what sings
If it all sounds tempting
And it do you entice
I'd shout to the heaven
That it do make it nice
Won´t you come live with me
I´d come live with me,
If I were you...If I were you!

I had myself a true love
A true love who was something to see
I had myself a true love
At least that's what i kept on telling me
The first thing in the morning
I still try to think of a way to be with him
Some part of the evening
And that's the way i live through the day
I had myself a true love, but now he's gone
And left me for good
The lord knows i don't hear d those back yard
Whispers going round the neighborhood
There may be a lot of things i miss
A lot of things i don't know
But i do know this, now i ain't got no love
And once upon a time i had a true love

Drift from pillar to post
Sweetenin' water
Cherry wine
So helplessly
Thank you kindly suits me fine
What I wanted the most
Winds up a ghostly memory
My man is gone
And when your man is gone
Your world just falls apart
So any place I hang my hat is home

A sleepin' bee told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love
I has found.
