Yesterday oh how many do you wish you could relive

Turn the page and go back oh I wonder what you'd give

Looking back does it seem when you've planned when you've dreamed

You forgot the most important thing

Smell the flowers while the roses bloom take the time my friend and sing a happy tune

Oh how precious every mile so take a minute learn to smile

My friend let's stop a while and smell the flowers (smell the flowers)

[ guitar ]

Got a troubled mind friend if you let too much worry rule your days

When you look back do you feel like something precious slipped away

Oh my friend are you the man that the world slip through his hands

Can you remember when you smelled the flowers

Smell the flowers...

Smell the flowers...
