English Teacher - Nearly Daffodils (Lyric Video)

Listen to Nearly Daffodils here: Filmed by: Holly Whitaker @hollyemmw Edited by: Lily Fontaine Lyrics: Mostly it feels like a waste, So much laughter un-canned I’d forgotten the taste Don’t make me go back All the plans we tiptoed around In quiet hours; Daffodil buds. There is a reason The first nine months doesn’t count. Nearly Presque Daffodils Nearly Presque Daffodils Sometimes it tears like a freight train Through a christening, Displacing the new growth and making everything ugly. Sometimes I want to make a home on it, To look between the wheels I’m scared of being under. I’ve started knitting in the mornings, I like to hear the birds sing. Nearly Presque Daffodils Nearly Presque Daffodils Last night I dreamt that we lasted all the way ‘til spring But now the fields are full Of red and blue With nothing in between You can lead water to the daffodils Mostly it feels like a waste, So much laughter un-canned I’d forgotten the taste Don’t make me Nearly Presque Daffodils Nearly Presque Daffodils Last night I dreamt that we lasted all the way ‘til spring But now the fields are full Of red and blue With nothing in between You can lead water to the daffodils But you can’t make them drink.
