In The Flowers Lyrics - Merriweather Post Pavilion - Animal Collective

Met a dancer who was high in a field 

From her movement caught my breath on my way home 

Couldn't stop that spinning force I felt in me 

Everything around seemed to giggle glee 

She walked up with a flower and I cared 

Saw the dancer who gets wild to the beats of record rhythms 

But I'm always away for weeks that pass slow 

My mind gets lost feeling envy for the kid who'll dance despite anything 

I walk out in the flowers and feel better 

If I could just leave my body for the night 

Then we could be dancing, no more missing you while I'm gone 

There we could be dancing and you'd smile and say I like this song 

And when our eyes will meet there we will recognize nothing's wrong 

And I wouldn't feel so selfish, I won't be this way very long 

To hold you in time, to hold you in time 

To hold you in time, to hold you in time

While we were dancing early hours, drunken days finally ended 

And the streets turned for a pillowcase and I fumbled our good lock 

Then the ecstasy turns to rising light through our windowpane 

Now I'm gone, I left flowers for you there
