Lyrics

There a broken body by the side of the road where the Daffodils grow where the Daffodils grow
There’s a soul escaping follows a distant glow where the Daffodils grow where the Daffodils grow
Oh what a beautiful day to feel your life slip away there’s a numbness no pain
Oh what a beautiful day such a beautiful play let’s throw our lives away

A bunch of tired flowers tied up with string and love where the Daffodils grow where the Daffodils grow
There’s a restless spirit by the side of that road where the Daffodils grow where the Daffodils grow

Chorus

Oh what a beautiful day such a beautiful day
Will we ever know what happened there where the Daffodils grow End
