Oleander, Oleander
Will you bloom again this spring?
I adored you, then I ignored you
And now to me you’re everything

And those white blossoms that you gave freely
Are now just twinkles in your eye
Oh, behold her, Oleander
Grows on the inside

She will forgive me for I bring water
A sunny window to sit by
Oleander, I understand her
She’s just waiting for the time

To say it’s all right, another season
Has brought us another chance
We’re together in this hot weather
To dance

Oleander, I think you’re better
I think you made it through another winter

Well, nothing has ended, it’s all been mended
It’s the way that it should be
You’re coming back, you’re coming back
It was so lonely here just me

This time, no promises of what’s to come
We’ll just live it for the day
Oleander, I see you stand there
And I know you’ll be okay

Oleander I think you’re better
I think you made it through another winter
Oleander I think you’re better
I think you made it through another winter
