Pressing Flowers Lyrics


Meet me in the garden where the weeds grow tall
Down by the gate
I got a secret that I might tell
It'll give me away
Ooo whatever you do
Ooo keep it with you
Meet me on the back porch where ivy climbs
We'll sit on the swing
Soak up the color of the midday sun
While the ocean sings
Ooo whatever you do
Ooo keep it with you
You and I o we're just pressing flowers
They are dying
But they're ours
Meet in a poem of an iron bed
Wipe the dust away

Meet me in the tintypes from long ago
Trace the lines of my face
Ooo whatever you do
Ooo keep it with you
Ooo whatever you do
Ooo keep it with you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Civil Wars consists of John Paul White, hailing from Florence, AL and Joy Williams, originally from Santa Cruz, CA, but now residing in East Nashville. The duo’s chance meeting fueled an immediate songwriting chemistry and creative synergy. Their second show ever, performed at a sold out Eddie’s Attic, was recorded and released as a free digital album.

Barton Hollow, the full-length debut from The Civil Wars, was released February 1, 2011 (Sensibility Music). According to the Barton Hollow Songfacts, it debuted at #1 on iTunes' album sales chart and at #12 on the Billboard 200. The album came on the heels of a breakout year for the duo, whose remarkably successful free/live album has been downloaded over 100,000 times. Additionally, their 2009 four song EP, Poison & Wine, debuted at #4 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter Top Albums chart. The EP’s title track and first single was played in full on “Grey’s Anatomy” (episode 609, "New History") and its accompanying music video has been viewed over 1,411,229 times on YouTube.
