Every flower tells a story In colors and perfume But there's one that's filled with glory Wherever it may bloom Pretty red hibiscus I'd admired you right from the start Pretty red hibiscus You're the flower of my heart Every day you're fairer Than the fairest flower that grows Pretty red hibiscus You're beautiful, everyone knows Though you may not be scented Like the other flowers are But when the day has ended You're as fair as an evening star Pretty red hibiscus I've admired you right from the start Pretty red hibiscus You're the flower of my heart
