Lyrics of Philip Bowen – Dogwoods

Some days we’re colder than a blackberry winter
Some nights we’re hotter than Judgement Day
Most of the time we live on the right side of the middle
Not the best but not the worst and that’s OK

And on the days and nights when our hearts need reminded
Of forever and the promises we’ve made
We’ll take a walk under the pink and ivory blossoms
We’ll stop and we’ll smile and then she’ll say

How the flowers reminded her of Jesus
She tells the story every Easter
About the crosses on their necks and little crowns on their heads
She said, I love you like the dogwoods love the spring
Babe, I love you like the dogwoods love the spring

There ain’t nothin like old time to heal your sorrow
And there’s nothin like the clock to bring back pain
Who we were and who we are and all that’s changing
Is there nothing that can ever stay the same

Like the flowers that reminded her of Jesus
She tells the story every Easter
About the crosses on their necks and little crowns on their heads
She said, I love you like the dogwoods love the spring
Babe, I love you like the dogwoods love the spring

Who can say why the heart bends like a willow
Who can say why the soul turns upside down
We both say that we won’t break, but even if we do
It’s a promise like an anchor to the ground

Just like the flowers that reminded her of Jesus
She tells the story every Easter
About the crosses on their necks and little crowns on their heads
She said, I love you like the dogwoods love the spring
Babe, I love you like the dogwoods love the spring
Love the spring
