I once knew a girl who had daisies for fingers
Grew lollipops straight from her hair
She traveled by pony and never looked lonely
My friends she'd insist without care
Called all her family spoke mostly harmony
Seemed to have it figured out
Painted in rainbows and shades only she knows
Around her ideas came to sprout
And now that we are older she still haunts me
Through dark and warm she always wears a smile
So for you, my friend, a song, to say
I'm still inspired by you
I asked her how one could be positive and hopeful
When everything falls apart
Life isn't fair she said make it a fair she said
Always be prepared she said to sing
Love is invented and wars are prevented
And you can do anything
Chin up and be up for that's what I'll be
When we're eighty years young we'll be here you'll see
And now that we are older she still haunts me
Through dark and warm she always wears a smile
So for you, my friend, a song, to say
I'm still inspired by you
Somewhere in the world she plants trails of jelly beans,
Some leave them be and some take
In her eyes she makes no mistake,
It's now a better place
When one finally whisked her away from the rest,
She pointed out we all continue to spin
Around and around 'til we lift off the ground,
For what would she be without us
And now that we are older she still haunts me
Through dark and warm she always wears a smile
So for you, my friend, a song, to say
I'm still inspired by you
I'm still inspired by you
I'm still inspired by you
