Whiskey and Daffodils

from Tennessee and 48th by Dave Giles

/

lyrics

I wonder if one day the bank will be kind
And give us a chance to buy your piece of mind?
Whether they will or they won’t
It’s alright.

Will we have neighbours who won’t mind the noise?
Will our nieces and nephews mind sharing their toys?
Whether they will or they won’t
It’s alright

It’s frustrating
You say you can’t take it
How I don’t think too far ahead

You tell me to stop it
When I change the topic
But somethings are best left unsaid

But when our best-made plans don’t work
We’ll be alright

Will we keep candles on the windowsill
Beside all my whiskey and your daffodils?
Whether we will or we won’t
It’s alright

Will there be room to keep my telescope?
We can count all the stars through our rooftop window
Whether we will or we won’t
It’s alright

I think it’s strange
And you think I’ll change
But I never want to grow up

You say you hate it
How I give or take it
Taking each day as it comes

But when our best-made plans don’t work
We’ll be alright

Cos while we’re daydreaming, life comes a-stealing
The memories that we could have made
Next thing you know, we’ll be all grey and old
But when our best-made plans don’t work
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright
