Flowers by the Windowpane

She woke me up from my chilly autumn slumber She said, "honey would you prefer pancakes or waffles?" I said, "oh waffles please, pancakes are awful" She said, "that's okay, I really don't mind. Meet me in the kitchen by nine Cause I'll let you sleep in" She was acting kind of strange today Well, she likes pancakes better No, that's not right She's not really talking as much as she might "Hey honey, are you alright?" "Yeah honey, I'm okay, but have you seen the flowers by the windowpane?" Summer was over for now You see these flowers, they're disappearing But that doesn't mean the seed will anytime soon There isn't a person in this whole world Who's gonna love you like I do And if I do grow old I don't wanna grow up but I wanna grow old with you There isn't a person in this whole world Who's gonna love you like I do And if I do grow old I don't wanna grow up but I wanna grow old with you Do you think it's weird that we don't talk a lot To encapsulate an average day you're reading a book And I'm on my laptop It makes me think of a time when we'd sit for hours and just talk I remember when you held up my hands and then said On that couch, that my hands looked like grid paper I honestly think it was an excuse to hold my hand And at that moment we didn't need to talk And now we understand that Summer was over for now You see these flowers, they're disappearing But that doesn't mean the seed will anytime soon There isn't a person in this whole world Who's gonna love you like I do And if I do grow old I don't wanna grow up but I wanna grow old with you There isn't a person in this whole world Who's gonna love you like I do And if I do grow old I don't wanna grow up but I wanna grow old with you
