Gardenia Lyrics
Well I put so much thought into getting ready
And now I know that was the best part
It's so easy to get caught up in what I'm regretting
Forget what I got from a wounded heart
I'm the one who likes Gardenia
I'm the one who likes to make love on the floor
I don't wanna hang up the phone yet
It's been good getting to know me more
I've been seeing all my old friends in the city
And walking alone in Central Park
Doing all the things that are neglected
I traded them all in to be in your arms
Well, I hear my own voice sounds so silly
Keep on telling my story all around
Everything I lost seems so different
Well, this is how everybody gets found
I'm the one who likes Gardenia
I'm the one who likes to make love on the floor
And I don't wanna hang up the phone yet
It's been good getting to know me more
And now I know that was the best part
It's so easy to get caught up in what I'm regretting
Forget what I got from a wounded heart
I'm the one who likes to make love on the floor
I don't wanna hang up the phone yet
It's been good getting to know me more
And walking alone in Central Park
Doing all the things that are neglected
I traded them all in to be in your arms
Keep on telling my story all around
Everything I lost seems so different
Well, this is how everybody gets found
I'm the one who likes to make love on the floor
And I don't wanna hang up the phone yet
It's been good getting to know me more

Oh my, Mandy's voice is breath taking. This song is very beautiful.
beautiful song about defining oneself and distinguishing from the other one in a relationship
maybe about redefining oneself and distancing from the other one in a relationship

"Doing all the things that are neglected I traded them all in to be in your arms"

She sounds funny when she says "more" I know, random. This is my favorite song on Wild Hope, hands down.
