I'm a boy
And she's a girl
With more charm than most movie stars
So we met
Through a friend
We rent a place and she comes round to stay

And now your girlfriend is ringing in my ears again
It's no sure shot but she likes all my favourite things
I know I shouldn't but I'd like to spend more time with her
I wish she'd come over today

What am I supposed to do?
I can tell, they get along so well
Is it possible, she likes me too?
I'm not sure if I should read between those lines

And now your girlfriend is ringing in my ears again
I should be moving out but can't 'cause we've just signed a lease
My hands are shaking, the bedroom walls are paper thin
I heard her come over today

Thought maybe we'd go out for a movie
And we can forget friends who'll be fuming
Then I could walk you home in the evening
And that's just being friendly

And now your girlfriend is ringing in my ears again
And when she smiles, I can't hide my jealousy
Oh I can't take it, boy I hope she's faking it
I heard he bought a ring today

I heard they got engaged today

Blossoms

In botany, blossoms are the flowers of stone fruit trees (genus Prunus) and of some other plants with a similar appearance that flower profusely for a period of time in spring. Colloquially, flowers of orange are referred to as such as well. Peach blossoms (including nectarine), most cherry blossoms, and some almond blossoms are usually pink. Plum blossoms, apple blossoms, orange blossoms, some cherry blossoms, and most almond blossoms are white.Blossoms provide pollen to pollinators such as bees, and initiate cross-pollination necessary for the trees to reproduce by producing fruit. more »
