Send Me No Flowers - Nellie McKay

Send me no flowers

Send me no flowers

Just want your arms around me

Your ever lovin' arms around me

You sent me flowers and a 'Get well' card

After you had broken my heart

Violets that were blue

Reminded me you’d never be true

So send me no flowers

Don’t need any flowers

Because your kissin', baby

Is what I’m missin', baby

When I’m at home, all alone

You don’t even bother, bother to phone

A little affection sometimes

Will sooth this heart of mine

But you send me flowers

To ease my lonely hours

Send me no flowers

Don’t need any flowers

Just need your kissin', baby

And I don’t mean maybe, baby

Send me no flowers, baby

Don’t need any flowers, baby

I need affection sometimes

To soothe this heart of mine

Send me no flowers, baby

Don’t need any flowers, baby

I need affection sometimes

To soothe this heart of mine

Send me no flowers, baby

Don’t need any flowers, baby

I need affection sometimes

To soothe this heart of mine
