View Lyrics

I haven’t got a great big yacht
But I’m contented with my lot
I’ve got one thing much more beautiful and grand

I do not own a racing horse
But that don’t fill me with remorse
I possess the greatest show piece in the land
So come with me and wander
To a lovely spot out yonder

In the Flower Garden of my heart
I’ve got violets as blue as your eyes
I’ve got dainty narcissus as sweet as my missus
And lilies as pure as the sky

In the Flower Garden of my heart
I’ve roses as red as your mouth
Just to keep our love holy I’ve got gladioli
And sunflowers fresh from the south
But you are the artist and love is the art
In the flower garden of my heart

GLADYS
In the flower garden of my heart
I’ve got lilacs and dainty sweet peas
You will look like sweet Willium
And smell like a trillium
Surrounded by fond bumblebees
But you are the pastry
And I am the tart
In the flower garden of heart
