Lyrics

There's a poet in the bushes He's been there for quite a while It's an unusual but harmless situation On the face of it All he appears to be doing is waiting Watching Pen in his hand Notebook on the moist earth He seems eager to write Yet the pages remain empty The reason why he's in the bushes? Not that long ago he read these lines that changed his life "I am a poet, If I want thะต rose to bloom, the rose blooms" It was a misty poะตt called Yang Lian who wrote them Who opened his eyes All he needed was a pen, some paper and a rose As it turned out, things weren't that easy What is the rose for one person May be something completely different for another Some people like flowers Others like thorns The poet had yet to find out He was determined to find out He grabbed his notebook and left the house "There's a strange man in the bushes" Parents warning each other Parents warning their children Telling them to stay on the pavement To never go out on their own To keep en eye on each other Meanwhile The poet sits on the moist earth Waiting for his rose to bloom
