She is closing all the shades
She finds the daylight just a little frightening
She pulls the petals overhead each day
But she is opening, her business is blooming nightly
And every time it does it gets me teary
The color of her head changing every day
A little breath of wind and I just go crazy
The greening of America is progressing nicely
'Cause she is choosing me
It is later than I said
And all the world is a shade of black and purple.
Everybody else has gone to bed
But when she makes me happy I just fly in circles
And every time she does I just get teary
The color of her head changing everyday
A little puff of wind and she is always near me
The greening of America is progressing nicely
It is all right with me
If there is another life
And if I get to choose I would like to be a daisy
I will stay up waiting for my dusky wife to open
And get high with just my jasmine baby
And every time she does it gets me crazy
The color of her head changing every day
A little breath of wind and I just get crazy
The greening of America is progressing nicely
It is all right with me
Every time she does I just get teary
The color of her head changing every day
A little breath of wind and she is always near me
The Greening of America is progressing smoothly
'Cause she is choosing me.
