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
In 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! (us)
And now that we are older she still haunts me
Through dark and warm she always wears a smile
So for you, (for you) my friend, (my friend) a song, (a song) to say (to say)
I'm still inspired by you
I'm still inspired by you
I'm still inspired by you
