Smell the Flowers Songtext

von Jerry Reed

Yesterdays
Oh, how many do you wish you could relive?
Turn the page and go back
Oh, I wonder what you'd give?

Looking back, does it seem
That when you've planned
And when you've dreamed
You forgot the most important thing

Smell the flowers while the roses bloom
Take the time my friend and sing a happy tune
Oh, how precious every mile, so take a minute, learn to smile
My friend, let's stop a while and smell the flowers
Smell the flowers

Got a troubled mind, friend
Did you let too much worry rule your days?
When you look back
Do you feel like something precious slipped away?

Oh, my friend are you the man
That the world slip through your hands?
Can you remember
When you smelled the flowers?

Smell the flowers while the roses bloom
Take the time my friend and sing a happy tune
You won't have this day again 'cause every road has got to end
So don't forget my friend to smell the flowers
Smell the flowers

Smell the flowers while the roses bloom
Take the time my friend and sing a happy tune
Oh, how precious every mile, so take a minute, learn to smile
My friend, let's stop a while and smell the flowers
