[00:00:00] Sellers of Flowers - Regina Spektor

[00:00:00] Written by：Regina Spektor

[00:00:00] The sellers of flowers buy up old roses

[00:00:04] They pull off dead petals like old heads of lettuce

[00:00:08] And sell 'em as new ones for cheaper and fairer

[00:00:12] But they die by the morning so who is the winner

[00:00:18] Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers maybe winter

[00:00:25] 'Cause winters coming soon after summer

[00:00:28] It runs faster faster chasing off autumn

[00:00:31] We go from a warm sun to only a white sun

[00:00:34] We go from a large sun to only a small one

[00:00:38] When I was a small girl I walked through the market

[00:00:40] Holding my dad's hand mitten gloved hand

[00:00:43] That night there were roses lit up in glass boxes

[00:00:46] The heat lamps would keep them from freezing in winter

[00:00:50] We never bought them but somebody must have

[00:00:53] Maybe they made it or maybe they froze up

[00:00:56] Before any person had put them in water

[00:00:58] And hoped that they'd still be alive by the morning

[00:01:03] Who's the winner

[00:01:04] Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers

[00:01:09] Not the tellers of the stories

[00:01:12] Not the fathers not their children

[00:01:14] Not those walking on a dark night

[00:01:17] Through a memory they're forgetting

[00:01:20] Who's the winner who's the winner

[00:01:23] Maybe winter maybe winter

[00:01:27] Somebody steps on a light through a tunnel

[00:01:33] They're holding a piece of their mind in the rubble

[00:01:37] Hold on I won't let go I want to know

[00:02:17] But no one lives long enough to see the outcome

[00:02:21] To know any answers to know what the point is

[00:02:25] To know if the winter ever came closer

[00:02:30] Than on that night when I walked with my father

[00:02:36] A small piece of ice lodged in my mind

[00:02:40] Lodged in my thoughts lodged in my eyes

[00:02:43] Cold all around cold all around

[00:02:46] Warm from inside warm from inside

[00:02:50] Who's the winner

[00:02:52] Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers

[00:02:56] Not the tellers of the stories

[00:02:59] Not the fathers not their children

[00:03:02] Who's the winner

[00:03:03] Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers

[00:03:07] Not the tellers of the stories

[00:03:10] Not the fathers not their children

[00:03:13] Not those walking on a dark night

[00:03:16] Through a memory they're forgetting

[00:03:19] Who's the winner who's the winner

[00:03:22] Maybe winter maybe winter

[00:03:24] Who's the winner who's the winner

[00:03:28] Maybe winter maybe winter

[00:03:31] Who's the winner who's the winner
