Lyrics
It was long, long ago in the moonlight
We were sitting on the banks of the stream
When you whispered so sweetly, I love you
As the waters murmured a tune
Oh they tell me your love is like a flower
In the springtime blossoms so fair
In the fall then they wither away dear
And they tell me that's the way of your love
I remember the night, little darling
We were talking of days gone by
When you told me you always would love me
That for me your love would never die
It was spring when you whispered these words dear
The flowers were all blooming so fair
But today as the snow falls around us
I can see that your love is not thereDemo Videos
About This Song
Your Love Is Like A Flower is a classic Flatt & Scruggs number from their early Mercury sessions in the late 1940s. It's become a jam session staple thanks to its sweet melody and Earl Scruggs' tasteful banjo breaks that showcase his groundbreaking three-finger style.
