For pleasure I went walking out through the fields one day
I started gathering flowers to make a sweet bouquet
Each flower that I gathered each one played a part
Each flower stood for someone held dear to my heart
Beautiful bouquet I'm gathering today
Picking the colors that will never fade away
Each flower has a meaning that's so dear to me
Each flower is a treasure chest of sweet memories
Violets for my sweetheart a white rose for my dad
A red rose stood for mother the best pal that I had
Forget-me-nots stood faithfully for tried true friends of mine
Daisies were for puppy loves that I left far behind
Lilies are for grandma who watches from afar
Poppies are for brother who lost his life at war
I put them all together to make a sweet bouquet
A rainbow full of colors that will never fade away
